S.O.S. (Saints or Sinners Class)

Saints or Sinners Class - Learning, loving and laughing through a variety of discussion centered studies, friendship and service. Format is media assisted lecture and class discussion. Meets each Sunday morning at 10:00 am. 

Join us as we start a new study based on a book and Video by AJ Levine and Marc Zvi Brettler called "The Bible With and Without Jesus, How Jews and Christians Read the Same Stories Differently." We are looking at six sections from the Old Testament or Tanakh that, although Christians and Jews read the same words, have different interpretations. The first of these is the creation story from Genesis. We'll also learn a little bit about how the Bible of the Orthodox, the Roman Catholics and Protestant Christians are all different. Please bring your favorite Bible, especially if it is Roman Catholic or Orthodox or Jewish. We'll check to see if you have some of the more unusual books that are in some bibles. And your bible might have a different order.

Each Sunday we offer 2 options - you can join in the SOS room or join on Zoom. For the link to Zoom, or any questions please contact Dan Lambert at dlambert@gforcecable.com or 803-646-5614.

Serendipity Sunday School Class

The Serendipity Sunday School Class is an informal, discussion-oriented Bible study class. We often use material published by Serendipity House. The strength of this class is the active participation of its members and our lively discussion! We meet on Sundays at 10:00 am and really enjoy our time and discussion together. On September 28 we will start a 13 week study on "Critical Decisions: Surviving in Today's World". We hope you'll join us!

Youth Sunday School is now on Summer Break and resumes in the Fall of 2025. Check back here for more information in August!

 
Our Elementary School Age Class uses Sparkhouse material with fun activities and our Middle/High School Age Class studies various materials - including the Graphic Novel about Martin Luther by Susan K. Leigh this past Winter and Spring. Come and join us in the Fall.

Confirmation Class meets once a month from September through May  (6th - 8th graders or others who are interested) - check with Pastor Jeff or Deacon Kathleen if interested!

DISCIPLESHIP SUPPORT OPPORTUNITIES DURING THE WEEK

                Questions About St. Paul, Lutheranism or Just Need Prayer?  

Come to the Table

At 10:00 a.m. on Tuesdays of each week you will find one of our Rostered Ministers seated at a table with St. Paul members at "What's Cookin" in downtown Aiken. Whether you are new to St. Paul, a long-time member or a friend from the community, you are invited to join the group for conversation and prayer. Come To The Table is an outreach ministry of St. Paul that allows newcomers and community members to share prayer requests as well as any thoughts or questions they might have about the Christian faith, St. Paul or Lutheranism. It is a great opportunity for our ministry staff to share time with parishioners, their family and friends, as well as community members, and new attendees. Consider dropping in some time to enjoy conversation and a cup of  coffee. Or why not be on the lookout for someone you would like to get to know better and invite them to join you?
