Welcome
Welcome to the St. Paul United Methodist Church website! We’re glad you found us, and we invite you to take a few moments and explore the ministry of our unique faith community.
As United Methodists, we are grounded in the grace of God, which claims us and loves us as we are and empowers us to be changed into all that God intends for us to be. We are rooted in the scriptural call to become followers of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to be the hands and feet of Christ in our community and to invite others to experience the love of Jesus Christ. We do this through worship, study, and through many fellowship and mission opportunities.
Please accept our invitation to join us on Sunday mornings for Sunday School at 10:00am and Worship Service at 11:00am. Check out the calendar on the site and join us for the various events at St. Paul UMC. Feel free to call or email with questions! We want to get to know you and hope that you will find a place to grow in your walk with God and to belong in a community of grace and love.

- Lenten Sermon Series
This Lent we will be doing a sermon series on Philippians based on Max Vincent's book, "Because of This I Rejoice." We will aim to look at Lent in a new light as we explore how Paul understood joy in his letter to the Philippians. You will not need to have the book, but below is the link on Amazon if you would like to follow along.
- Next Food Pantry Sunday - April 7
First Sunday of every month is Food Pantry Sunday. Bring a few non-perishable food items with you to church and place them in the basket at the back of the sanctuary. Thank you for all you do to help provide food for those in need in our community!
- NEXT NOISY OFFERING - March 10th
During the Noisy Offering, the children of St. Paul collect change from the congregation to raise money for a mission of their choice. Please bring your spare change and join us in supporting them and a cause they choose!
- Spring Cleaning - Yard Sale Collection
Clean out your clutter for our annual church fundraiser. All yard sale donations will go upstairs in Room 204. Look for a yard sale sign on the door. Thank you!
- Noisy Offering Is Making a Difference in Our Community!
GREAT NEWS! The Noisy Offering (change collected each month for local missions)...is going to help the Calhoun County Snack Packs program and the local animal shelter! Thank you for your donations to these wonderful causes!
- Calhoun Academy Helps Calhoun County Snack Packs
In celebration of the 100th day of school, the Kindergarten-3rd graders at Calhoun Academy packed 100 snack packs for the Calhoun County Snack Packs program, that helps provide extra food for hungry children in our community.
It is so rewarding that on their 100th day of school they thought of other children. They not only donated snacks and packed the bags, but they also decorated them! The children receiving these snack bags will know that there's a lot of love and care out there. God's love is truly at work here.
The Snack Pack group at St Paul United Methodist is very appreciative of their generosity! Calhoun County Snack Packs currently serves 55 children in our community each week. We rely on donations from the community and we cannot thank you enough for your contributions, prayers and continued generosity. Thank you, Calhoun Academy!
