Saint Paul UMC - Spartanburg, SC

As our Deep Sea Discovery Divers end their week with us, We Hope That Each Of You Know That Saint Paul United Methodist Church Loves You And What We Learned About God's Love For Us All...

Oh No! Our Deep Sea Divers came to the ocean lab to discover that a great storm swept away all the underwater plants and fish!
But it's OK because today, we learned that God Gives Us Strength, even through the storms.
And who knows, maybe a few of our underwater friends might return to visit us again on our Deep Sea Discoveries.
We'll see you tomorrow morning at 9:00 am!

Our Deep Sea Divers discovered yesterday that God Hears Them And Loves Them! I wonder what Deep Sea Discovery awaits for them today? We'll see you at 9:00 am this morning!
