Join the SPOC at National Night Out! On Tuesday, August 4, the SPOC will have a booth at partner church Jehovah Lutheran (1566 Thomas Ave., St. Paul) with face painting and free books, open pickleball. We want to connect with neighbors like you to invite you to upcoming community programs like sewing, ESL, and music classes. Please stop by!

The Saint Paul Outreach Center is excited for the opportunity to connect with the community through sewing seeds of friendship.

Our next session is happening on a Friday in June 2026, at 6:30pm at Jehovah Lutheran Church. Future sessions will be decided at this event.

If you are interested, please fill out the form at the link below, or email [email protected].

Our hope is that by engaging in meaningful conversation and sewing with our neighbors--and perhaps eventually their family and friends--we might have opportunities to share why we at the SPOC join together in all we do, namely, becuase we believe that Jesus Christ has lived, died, and risen for all of us and them. We recognize that some people we meet may not begin by walking off the street into our church. But some people might become interested in learning more about church through positive interactions with the Church--the body of Christ. We desire to bring them into the church as the Holy Spirit calls them. The opportunity to sew and engage is one more way that the members of the SPOC are following God's call to be witnesses to everyone in every place we find ourselves.

Please pray for those in the Midway neighborhood who may attend!
