– Are you new to St. Paul congregation or have you forgotten to register with the Catholic Church in Norway? You can either do this electronically at katolsk.no or using the registration forms that are located at the back of the church and at the exit on the Maria side. These can be handed in at the parish office or the sacristy. Registration costs nothing, as the church receives a subsidy from the state for each registered member. Members are sent free Catholic magazines and information regarding catechesis for 1st Communion and Confirmation.

– The application deadline for St. Paul School is November 15th. This applies to admission to 1st and 8th grade.
