Looking for volunteer opportunities?


At St. Paul, we believe that outreach and mission ministries are a critical part of our Christian life together. Our Beyond the Walls Team plans service projects and volunteer opportunities to serve locally, globally, and at St. Paul.

Throughout the year, the team plans and implements projects that aim to benefit the world we share. There are many Louisville volunteer opportunities to get involved in!

CURRENT OPPORTUNITIES

The Resource Center

The St. Paul Resource Center welcomes those our community to stop by the church on Mondays and Wednesdays from 10am-1pm to receive everyday essentials such as clothing, shoes, hygiene items, blankets, and more. Those who stop by at other times will receive a Compassion Bag and information about our regular Resource Center hours and other resources that may benefit them. Your donations and financial support for the Resource Center allow us to share the love of Christ with our neighbors in need. Thank you.

Mobile Resource Center

Since the pandemic, we’ve been using our resources to assist other outreach organizations that are actively serving those in need. In June, we launched our Mobile Resource Center, which travels to Fourth Ave UMC to support its Open Door Community Ministry. They serve meals five days per week. On the second Saturday, we are taking the Mobile Resource Center (our bus loaded with clothes, shoes, toiletries, and more) to Fourth Ave UMC to serve their guests. Volunteers are always needed. Contact Sara Ferebee, Director of Communications and Outreach, at sara@stpaulchurchky.org if you would like to help out!

We accept donations of shelf-stable foods and clothing (especially men’s clothing) year-round. Donations boxes are located in the Family Life Center lobby and the elevator lobby in the main building.

To make your donation shopping a little easier, you can purchase from our wish lists, which will ship the items directly to the church:

Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, We believe that serving the needs in the city of Louisville and beyond is the best way to fulfill this Great Commission of Christ! As we are located in the heart of the Highlands, we believe that we have a great opportunity to serve many go God’s children by showing them the love of Christ.
