St. Paul Lutheran Church is a parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America in downtown Vancouver, Washington. We welcome you to our website, and we welcome you to any event on our worship and activity calendar!

“The Gathering” has been a wonderful opportunity for study and prayer on Sunday afternoons. Using the series, “The Greatest Story,” (part of the Book of Faith program), we have done a big-picture overview of the Old Testament. We’ve had lively discussions as we have discovered how God’s story connects with our own stories. Sessions have included storytelling, visual sand art presentations, reflections on the Psalms, and sharing of personal stories. We are taking a break during the summer, but will start up again in September as we gather to look at the New Testament. Whether you are new to Bible study or want to renew your acquaintance with God’s Word, all are welcome and encouraged to join us. “The Gathering” starts at 4 p.m. each Sunday, beginning in September..

Sunday, June 30 is another opportunity to be part of our 5th Sunday Singers. We have one rehearsal at 9 a.m. that day to learn the songs that we will sing that morning at the worship service. This is a great time to try out the choir with no strings attached. All are welcome!

Our next gathering will be on June 19 at Joy Carlson’s home. Join us at 6 pm for a meal and fellowship, followed by the Bible study at 7 pm. Please bring a topping for baked potatoes or a salad/dessert to share or just yourself! This summer’s discussion is based on a series of worship articles by Peter Marty that was in The Lutheran magazine. All are welcome to this evening of study and sharing.
