Rector’s Greeting

Welcome to our website! Two thousand years after Jesus lived among us, we are a church that sees our principal ministry to be one of healing, transformation, and restoration. especially removing any obstacles that keep people from knowing a richer and fuller life and the experience of God’s all embracing, unconditional love. I hope that what you find as you explore our website is an invitation to visit us at St. Paul’s on the Green and learn more about our parish community, its exciting life, mission, and ministry.

One of our mantras here at St. Paul’s is that “we do church differently.” At the center of that way of life is the openhandedness with which we welcome all to be part of what we do. Our “outside the box” perspective on belonging boasts a bold celebration of diversity, and the recognition that God has given us this wonderful thing called a brain and, with it, our individual intellectual gifts.

When guests come through our church doors they find this message: All persons who enter this sacred place enter with the promise that they will be free to be who they are. Radical Welcome and intentional hospitality are at the center of every aspect of our mission and ministry and in every point of entry to our life here.

With the completion of the Fifty Great Days of Easter marked by the feast of Pentecost, we have now come to another beginning in the liturgical life of the church: the long, “green” season referred to as “Sundays after Pentecost” or “Ordinary Time.” In truth, there is really no “ordinary time” at St. Paul’s. We believe that every Sunday is an occasion to put our best foot forward and to offer the kind of worship experience that will nourish you. We also believe that your very entry through our doors – any day — is a special event and we look forward to welcoming you on your next visit. May the greening of the earth bring a time of refreshment and respite for you and opportunities for enjoying the warmth of the summer months.

Blessings,

Nicholas Lang+
Rector
