The Christian Education committee at St. Paul’s is designed to provide educational activities for all members of the congregation, from kindergarten to adults. Sunday school classes are held from 9:15 - 10:15 AM on select Sundays during the school year as part of a 4 week session.
Our next 4 week youth event, "Journey to the Cross," will start on March 24 at 9:15AM. Each session will begin with a Youth Bell Choir practice from 9:15AM-9:45AM. Pastor Mike will teach the lesson from 9:45AM-10:15AM.
What does is mean to follow Jesus to the cross and be a disciple?
How do we learn to sacrifice for the sake of others?
How do we deal with a world that isn't fair?

The Sunday school classes participate in several service projects with the Orwigsburg food pantry throughout the year. We make snack bags, Easter baskets, collect gently-used children’s books, and sponsor an Angel Tree every December.
The confirmation class holds a Youth Sunday program every year in late winter. A skit is performed and youth serve as ushers, lectors, and greeters. This day is always educational and entertaining!
We have an active Youth Gathering group that aims to take eligible teens to the national conference, which is held every 3 years. The last group spent 4 days in Houston doing community service projects, attending bible studies and worship, participating in experiential learning projects and exploring the host city. The next Youth Gathering will be held in Minneapolis, MN in 2021. For more information on the Youth Gathering click here.
