Fourth Wednesday of every month @ 7 PM, “Taize at St. Paul”  They  would like to
invite all of you to join us in contemplative worship, simple song, and prayer in the spirit
of Taize. It will be held at Saint Paul Lutheran Church (1600 Grant Street) at the edge of
downtown. We invite all faiths to join us! Please note that parking is available and free
