They also need college-bound notebooks, pocket folders, loose-leaf paper (college or wide-lined), glue sticks, color pencils or markers, and even pencils and pens! Please consider buying a quality backpack and filling it with these most needed supplies. Place all your donations into our school bus display located in the narthex. Thank you for your generosity!!!

God’s Love in Action is strong at St. Paul! With love and outreach we had 88 kids register for VBS with less than half being our members! We had members help set up, assist with registrations, provide/serve family meals, lead crafts, bible stories, music, be group leaders, group helpers, help with power point, opening/closing, take photos and more! The kids set a goal of $500 for mission offering for clean water in Tanzania and in 4 days contributed $776! We learned God does keep his promises on life’s wild ride and the excitement in those 4 days was truly wild! Thank You St. Paul!
10% of your bill at Texas Road House is donated back to the church on any Sunday when you bring the current Sunday bulletin and show it to the restaurant. This is an ongoing fundraiser for all youth projects.
