Welcome to St. Paul’s

Welcome to St. Paul’s on-the-Green. If you have driven by or visited us before you know that St. Paul’s is blessed with a beautiful building and grounds. More importantly, however, it is blessed with a depth of Spirit that we hope nourishes all who enter. Our liturgy is rich with wonderful music, sights and smells. While we aim for excellence in worship we never want it to be stuffy and so, we affectionately refer to our style as “smells, bells, …and sneakers!” Our children and teens participate in visible ministries, serving at the altar in a variety of ways, serving as ushers alongside their peers and adults, and by singing with our Chorister program. In addition, we have a vital Christian Formation (Sunday School) program during the Ministry of the Word, where young people can engage with the day’s lessons on their own level. Children rejoin the congregation around the table for Eucharist so that all generations are fed together.

Please do visit us to experience any one of a variety of worship opportunities, browse in Standing Stones, our on-site Bookstore or walk and meditate in our Labyrinth and Healing Gardens. St. Paul’s is a diverse congregation and we feel continually blessed when guests join us. We look forward to offering you our signature “Radical Welcome” and hospitality, respecting and valuing who you are and wherever you happen to be on your journey of faith.
