Welcome! There is something for everyone at St. Paul Ev. Lutheran Church and worship for all. There are numerous opportunities for the study of God's word for all ages. Our Sunday School involves students in hands-on participation in the Biblical stories. We also provide cross–generational interaction in faith development linking home and congregation together. We are a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA), as well as a partner in the Grosse Pointe Ecumenical Parish. We gather around the Word and Sacrament. We unite with our brothers and sisters in Christ to proclaim the saving and redeeming message of Jesus Christ in word and in deed. We are people of God desiring to move ahead in grace and hope. It is our prayer for you that you will discover your gifts and share those gifts with our congregation, the community and the world. Yours in Christ, Pastor Frederick Harms Pastor Morsal Collier

Monthly Highlights Transition Steering Committee The Transition Steering Committee's Report and Recommendations to Church Council was distributed at the Annual Meeting on Sunday January 29, and is available below for your review and information. Additional hard copies of the report are available in the Church Office. There were some comments at the annual meeting regarding information in Section 1 "Statistical Data & Analysis". If anyone believes the information in this section is incorrect, please submit your suggested modifications to Rick Grenzke at rgrenzke@wolverinetool.com. The committee will review the information and update the report accordingly. Moving forward, we anticipate that there will be several opportunities for the congregation to comment on the report. A plan for comment and discussion by the congregation will be developed by the Council in the next week. In the meantime, I invite each member to carefully read the report and pray about the vision outlined and recommendatins offered. We have many challenges and opportuntities ahead of us in the next few years. I look forward to making the most of them with you. Dave Upmeyer, Council President Click here for the document. Make It Simple Thank You" for your participation in this year's stewardship response program entitled "MAKE IT SIMPLE." We hope that your experience in this was spiritually enriching. As a congregation we have experienced rich conversation, thoughtful reflection, and prayerful discernment concerning simple living and our stewardship of the abundant blessings we receive from God. We have experienced a good response in estimates of giving through the Commitment Cards. And we have grown as a community of faith in the covenants that we have made with one another in the use of the Covenant Cards. If you have not responded with your Commitment and Covenant card please take this opportunity to participate. Now is the time to live your faith and grow in the community of God. You can either drop them off in the pledge box on Sunday, mail the card to chruch - attention Gretchen Archinal or email the information directly to Gretchen at gretchen.archinal@stpaulgp.org. This process helps us in planning the budget for 2012. Once again, thank you to all for your support.
