The St. Paul Church Directory is missing names and especially pictures for several of our members. A picture to match a name is very helpful to new members and for interim pastors wanting to connect with members of St. Paul.
Please take the time to add a picture to the St. Paul Church Directory and if you haven’t already done so, please sign up for the directory. Go to the Member Website to create a password and sign up for the St. Paul Instant Church Directory at:

If you need any assistance, such as adding a picture, please contact either Merlina Gamel, 325-347-2141, or Janet Schmidt, 325-347-4634.
