Las Amigas (The Friends)

This is a social and support program for Hispanic/Latino women. It encourages development for women, promoting education, activities, discussions, diversion and support. It is open to women of all ages, and the group meets each Thursday from 6:45pm to 8:45pm.

ESOL Program

The Hispanic Ministry of St. Paul UMC has conducted a long-standing English for Speakers of Other languages (ESOL) Program. This is done in conjunction with our neighbor and partner, the Life Enrichment Center.
