Worship Center
St. Paul's Worship Center grew from concept to reality in 1990 after several women in the parish
studied the innovative, Montessori-based approach to Christian education. The Worship Center currently
ministers to three groups.
The original group includes all children from age 3 through the first grade. Another, intermediate
group features students in 2nd and 3rd grade. The final group provides more in-depth study and stories
for youths from the 4th through 8th grades. This last group calls itself the Sonseekers.
Adult Education
Adult Education meets in the lounge on the main level of the church at 9:15 a.m. on Sundays. A
variety of formats and topics are used and discussed, led by parish members throughout the year. Adult
education classes do not meet during the summer months.
Inquirers Class
The Inquirers class is available to anyone wishing to become more familiar with the Episcopal
church and/or prepare to be confirmed or received in the church. The class is customized to meet
the needs of the people attending and usually begins in the early fall, concluding in the spring.
Various educational opportunities are available through the parish, diocese and community and are
noted as they occur.
