Little Free Pantry: Caring for our Community
Unopened nonperishable food items can be brought into the Parish Hall and added to the metal shelves beside the coat rack. Please no textiles/clothing, perishable or expired food. Thank you!
Our Little Free Pantry is a labor of love made by our faith community for the betterment of our entire community. At St. Paul's we spread the love of Christ by embodying his call to love without exception. It is Jesus' message of charity that inspired the statue known as homeless Jesus perched on our front steps beside our Little Free Pantry. The Gospel of Matthew reminds us to see Christ in the stranger, the beggar, the overlooked... We hope our 24/hr outdoor Free Pantry can serve those most in need throughout the community.

You are Welcome at St. Paul's!
We are ALL made in God's image. No exceptions. We welcome all people, all families, and all love. Celebrate Christ's light with St. Paul's Sundays at 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Join us in the Way of Love.
Living the Greatest Commandment
Everything we do, from worship to pastoral care to formation to serving our community, comes from Jesus' Greatest Commandment.
Jesus said “love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your being, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first and greatest commandment. The second is this, You will love your neighbor as yourself. No other commandment is greater than these.”
-Mark 12:28-31
