Starting April 11, we will offer in-person worship in the Sanctuary each Sunday. Click here to learn more. We will continue to offer the 10:30 service as a livestream in the sections below, so those who wish to worship from home may do so. The worship bulletin will be available each week as a downloadable *pdf file.
Easter Worship will be held in-person in Reinhardt Park across the street from St. Paul's front doors. The 10:30 worship service will be livestreamed right here.

Prayer: Forgiving Christ, when the world condemns
us, when wrong is done to us, when we carry the weight of things that are too
much to forgive, come along side us in the darkness, and give us the grace to
be forgiven and forgiving.
Prayer: Reconciling Christ, we are weighed down by
sin and separation, a world that is not at peace, people who are not whole. You
reached out to the thief, you welcomed him to God’s side. Come alongside us in
the darkness, and bring grace and peace to everything that is broken.

Jesus, Remember Me by Jacques
Berthier, from Les Presses de Taizé
Prayer: Loving Jesus, we carry the weight of
the people we love, concern for their sorrows and suffering. Our care for them
is deep, and sometimes there is not much we can do. Come alongside us in the
darkness, and cradle the ones we love in your strong hands.
Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, you know what it is to
feel that God is far away. You know what it is to call out for God’s presence.
Come alongside us in the darkness, and help us call out for God.
Prayer: Suffering Savior, in all our thirst, in
all our sickness, in all our longing, in all our pain, you are there. Come
alongside us in the darkness, and walk with us through all our suffering.
Prayer: Dearest Jesus, even in death, you are
there. When we mourn, when we are afraid, when we come to our own end, you have
been there, too. Come alongside us in the darkness, and carry us through death
to life.

Creating Sacred Spaces outside the walls of St. Paul's
While nothing can replace the feeling of gathering together in the Sanctuary at St. Paul's for Sunday worship services, it's also true that worship is something you can do anywhere, anytime.
