Small groups at the Church of Saint Paul are thriving! With nearly two dozen synod groups, plus others like Couples in Christ and youth ministry groups, there's something for everyone.
Small groups are where relationships grow, connections deepen, and faith flourishes.

After three years of listening, preparation and engagement with laity, consecrated women and men, and clergy across the archdiocese, Archbishop Hebda released his pastoral letter in November 2022. This pastoral letter outlines his vision and Synod Priorities for our local church, informed through feedback from the Synod process. Read the letter at archspm.org/synodletter.
The Synod Evangelization Team (SET) will serve at our parish to act on the priorities of the Synod and implement synod goals specific to the Church of Saint Paul which will be defined in the months ahead.
