Welcome Archdeacon Carolyn Bolton
Director of Children & Youth Ministries

​The young people of St. Paul’s now have a leader in the form of a long-time friend of St. Paul’s, Archdeacon Carolyn Bolton. 

Many will remember her great work with Senior Resources and as a comforting presence at St. Paul’s Towers, and, of course, she is the guiding light of the phenomenally successful Pantry of Hope. But long before she became an Episcopalian and a deacon, Carolyn’s volunteer work with her Baptist church and its Vacation Bible School led her to decades of service with the Boys and Girls Clubs in East Oakland and she was the Day Labor Coordinator and Diamond Youth Shelter Coordinator at the Larkin Street Youth Center. She enjoys “helping kids be the best they can be and encouraging them not to give up.” Fun fact: Carolyn was a P.E. major and loves physical activity! 

If you or your grown-up would like to be on the youth and children program activity mailing list and help with these events, please get in touch with Deacon Carolyn deacon@staulsoakland.org.

​At St. Paul’s, people of all ages come to learn, laugh, worship, question, and play in faith. We’re not just about education - we're about spiritual formation.

Children are welcome to worship at our weekly services on Sunday at 8am and 10am, and at special liturgies.
​
The young and adults are welcome to participate in educational and edifying opportunities at St. Paul's, including serving as Acolytes and Rites of Passage: Baptism and Confirmation.
