Welcome!

If you’re visiting St. Paul Lutheran Church and arrived here through the QR code in our bulletin or outreach event, we’re so glad you joined us. This page will give you a glimpse of how we live out our faith beyond Sunday mornings. Whether you’re looking for a place to serve, a way to give, or simply to learn more, you are warmly invited to be part of our mission.

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” – Ephesians 2:10

As Lutherans, we understand outreach as a joyful response to God’s love in Jesus Christ. We don’t serve to earn God’s favor, but because we already live in His grace. Whether you are a longtime member, a new visitor, or simply exploring faith, there is a place for you here.

2026 Upcoming Events

• April 4th – St. Paul Easter Eggstravaganza

Annual Ministries

• Help-a-Child Clothing Drive — We work with Thorndale ISD to supply new school clothes to elementary students each August to help address the district’s student needs.

• Easter Eggstravaganza — This annual fun-filled community event is held the Saturday before Easter. We kick off the event with a giant Easter Egg Hunt on church grounds. Beyond the hunt, families can enjoy a variety of games and activities and refreshments.

• Vacation Bible School — Get ready for a week of faith, fun, and adventure at the St. Paul campus during summer break! Kids explore Bible studies through hands-on activities, music, crafts, games, and more. Each day includes an engaging lesson, snacks, and plenty of fun as we learn about God’s love!

• Thorndale Cares Thanksgiving Meal - Our Board supports the Thorndale Cares Thanksgiving Meal by contributing volunteers and donations to help ensure local families receive a warm holiday meal. Efforts include preparing and donating homemade dishes, serving/assembling meals onsite, as well as providing financial and in‑kind support to help cover essential supplies. Through this collective involvement, we helped Thorndale Cares continue its mission of sharing with the community.

• Thorndale Christmas Parade – The Board participates in the Thorndale Christmas Parade with a festive booth where we serve complimentary hot chocolate and offer fun, hands‑on holiday crafts for families. The booth provides a joyful way to connect with the community, spread Christmas cheer, and share information about our upcoming Christmas services. We look forward to welcoming everyone throughout the season as we celebrate together through meaningful worship, fellowship, and holiday traditions.

If you’re new, welcome again! You don’t have to be a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church to join in our outreach. Everyone is invited to serve, give, and grow alongside us. We’d love to help you find your place.
