Lenten Series 2010

A Gospel for the 21st Century

Please join us for St. Paul's 2010 Lenten Preaching & Lunch Series. Our theme this year is "A Gospel for the 21st Century." For over 100 years, St. Paul's has sponsored this popular lenten program, which features a notable preacher each week and a delicious lunch.

Each 30-minute service begins at 12:30 pm and lunch is served in the Parish Hall in two sittings (11:45 am & 1:00 pm). Come for one or both parts of the day, as you prefer! Weekdays (Mondays - Fridays) during Lent.

Free parking is available for the second year in a row in the St. Paul's Garage! Garage entrance is on 8th Street between Franklin and Grace Streets. Childcare is also available.
