Introduction to St. Paul's

St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church is a member of Lutheran Church - Canada and affiliated with the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. We offer a variety of worship styles, programs and mission opportunities for all ages. It is our desire to reach out to the communities of the upper Fraser Valley with the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We also serve the congregation of Holy Cross Lutheran Preaching Station in Hope.

Calendar - Education

Christian Education isn't only for children. God's family of all ages can benefit from regular instruction in the Word of God. Come and join with others in this journey of faith through the Bible. New participants are always welcome at any of our education programs and you need not be a member of our congregation.

CHILDREN'S EDUCATION

During the school year (September-June) children are dismissed just prior to the sermon for Children's Church with an age-appropriate Bible lesson while their parents listen to Pastor's message. The children return to their families in time for communion. We also have Busy Bags with quiet toys for the young children as well as a Parents' Room with one way glass if parents need a quiet place to take their little ones. During the summer months, children worship in church with their families, but we have an extended Children's Message along with crafts and story pages for the children to enjoy during the sermon time.

What we Believe

Our teachings can be summed up in the words of the Apostle's Creed

I BELIEVE IN GOD, THE FATHER ALMIGHTY , maker of heaven and earth.

AND IN JESUS CHRIST , His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT , the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. AMEN.

Calendar - Worship Services

Worship in person or online at 10:00 am Sundays The Sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated at each Sunday worship service God gathers us together in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, the name into which we were baptized. He gathers us to receive His gifts—Himself, His name, His flesh and blood Son, His Word of pardon and peace, His life, His grace and Spirit. In the Divine Service He distributes these gifts to us. Here we receive the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation Christ won for us on the cross. God calls and gathers us into His holy Christian church where we have communion with Him and all His saints in heaven and on earth. Heaven and earth intersect in the Divine Service.
