PARISH LIFE

Welcome to St. Paul's Church

Underlying everything we do at St. Paul’s is the joy we take in gathering: for worship, education, fellowship and for ministering to each other and the surrounding community. This joy is apparent in our welcoming of visitors and newcomers, in our delight at feeding each other and in the good cheer that pervades our parish events.

Who are we?

We are a collection of individuals who come from varied backgrounds and have diverse life experiences.  Yet when we gather in God's name, our unity is strengthened by our diversity. 

Parish Life at St. Paul’s 

Sundays at St. Paul’s are full of opportunities for worship, spiritual formation and fellowship for parishioners of all ages. We welcome and encourage the participation of children in all our liturgies. In addition to childcare, we have comfort rooms in the church for use during services. Each week, teams of parishioners serve a fully cooked breakfast and we gather for a social hour after our principal service.

In addition to Sunday worship and spiritual formation, we also have many weekday programs. There are Bible study and spiritual formation events, outreach ministries like cooking for people with HIV/AIDS and hosting guests who stay with us as part of the Interfaith Hospitality Network, adult and junior choirs and committees working on everything from finances and education to communications and sustainability.
