Small Groups at St. Paul’s

​ 

Small groups at St. Paul’s are a wonderful way to participate in meaningful spiritual, creative, and fellowship experiences in an intimate setting. These gatherings offer opportunities to meet others, deepen relationships, and explore shared interests. Some groups meet on an ongoing basis, while others form for a season as interest arises. Women’s and men’s fellowships, service committees, and special-interest groups have long been part of the life of St. Paul’s.

​

​

The following groups are currently taking place at St. Paul’s:

​

“Deep Calls Unto Deep” – An Hour of Mindfulness & Meditation

An inclusive, exploratory guided meditation for people of all experience levels, led by Rev. Sousa. The practice emphasizes stillness, presence, and inner peace rather than any single tradition.

• First Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m.
  (Note: when the Monday evening session is held, there is no Thursday morning meeting that week.)
