We are inviting all those who participated in St. Paul’s Youth programs during the past (H.E.Y. group, Vacation Bible Camp, Sunday School, Confirmation Camp) to join us for an incredible Youth Reunion.

The event begins with a casual, Camp-style youth service, Sunday, September 20, 2026, 11:00 a.m. at St. Paul’s Church, Erbsville. The worship will feature camp songs, special music in the church and a role play presented by former youth members. At 12:00 p.m. noon, we will gather for a barbeque lunch outside with hamburgers, hot dogs, salads and all the fixings. Please join us and bring friends. All are welcome! Any age!

We look forward to seeing you!

Music Sunday at St. Paul’s

· ·

An ‘official inauguration’ of our ‘relatively new-to-us organ’ will take place during Music Sunday at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church this year on May 3rd at 10:00 am during a Joint Service with St. Peter’s Church members.

Dan will show-off this organ’s wonderful sounds and demystify how it works! He will enlighten and entertain us during a recital. We’ll sing some of your favourite Hymns during an informal Service. Thanks to Covid we didn’t have an actual inauguration. Let’s do it now!

Lunch will be provided afterwards in our basement Hall.

Please mark your calendars and spread the word. Let us be proud and thankful.
