who we are

Each of us has a story of finding our way to this household — an open, welcoming congregation of God’s people.

We at St. Paul’s have found a spiritual home that resonates deeply in both mind and spirit. We have an abiding commitment to the saving love of Christ Jesus, without precondition, to all who come.

St. Paul’s invites you to experience the depth and power of the rich, ancient prayer, liturgy, and music in the Anglo-Catholic tradition of the Episcopal Church. We are a parish deeply committed to the beauty and profundity of the rituals, readings, prayers, and symbolic actions known as the “liturgy.” St. Paul’s has long been renowned for the care and solemn loveliness of its worship services. We engage all the senses; strive for beauty and dignity; and find an inner stillness and spirituality. We gather as God’s loved people; some in jeans, others more dressed up, with members from many traditions. We fully use the treasures of the Episcopal Church’s Book of Common Prayer (1979) as well as the Book of Occasional Services and The Hymnal 1982.

Community Events

Dinners for Eight

We created our “Dinners for Eight” program to help people in the parish get to know each other over a meal, usually four times a year. Participation might involve sharing a pot-luck meal at someone’s home or a meal at a restaurant, but each group decides how and when they want to convene. The goal is simply to meet people or enrich old relationships and have fun.

Monthly Social after Last Friday Evensong

On the last Friday of each month the parish hosts a social following our 5:30 p.m. Evensong service in the Chapel. This social with light food and drink allows for a smaller social setting in which to get to know people.

Quiet Mornings

Quiet Mornings occur at regular intervals throughout the year.
