Virtual Lenten
Scavenger Hunt
We're doing a Virtual Scavenger Hunt this Lent! We'll be asking questions about St. Paul's connection with Standing Rock and Indigenous Nations. Watch the video for each week's clue and submit your answer via the submission form. All answers will be revealed during the Digital Lenten Retreat on Sunday Nights. Whoever has the most correct answers will receive a prize!
