St. Paul's in Olney!

Greetings from Pastor Kopp!From the desk of Pastor Kopp...

Welcome to St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran Church online! At St. Paul’s, we have resolved to keep our website fresh, lively and informative. We want to keep your mouse busy! Tell us what you’re thinking. We’d love to hear from you!

St. Paul’s Church is a church of striking contrasts, a dynamic which has served to energize our ministry and mission. Founded as a German American congregation of Lutheran immigrants in the 19th century, we have, over time, become a church of our neighborhood – Olney –a neighborhood that is anything but German. Living and working here are peoples from all the seven continents. The streets are populated by Christians and Muslims, Hindus and Jews. St. Paul’s, dwelling in Olney’s midst, strives to be faithful in its mission to share with all people:

St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church is an ECLA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) congregation.

 


 

  • The Word of God
  • Spiritual Fellowship
  • Christ’s reality in our lives.

St. Paul’s is a highly `multi-tasking’ church, continuing to offer traditional worship and activities, while also building future ministries with a diverse community in mind. We are old and not so old. We are traditional and `cutting edge.’ We are European, African and Asian in extract – yet all Americans seeking to walk in the way of the Christ. We cherish fond memories and are brimming with hopeful dreams.

Scan the pages and links of our site. You will see how people of all ages are valued and served. You will observe how worship and learning are embedded into our gathered life. Youth programming, music and health ministry breathe a wholesome air into our daily lives. We are a busy and active corner, here at 5th and Nedro. And I truly believe that St. Paul’s is contagious to people – maybe even contagious for you!

So many opportunities for worship and fellowship at St. Paul's:

Sunday Serivces, including early service at 8:00, late-morning service at 10:30, Sunday School at 9:15, mid-morning education in a relaxed setting, children's church, children's Sunday School at 9:15, and more!

We also offer mid-week adult education, children and youth and music activities, and numerous occasional services and events! Also, each First Wednesday of each moth we have open, "stop-by" prayer in our Chapel at 6:30pm. Check our Calendar for the most up-to-date schedule!
