Worship at St. Paul's

Our worship follows the order of Book of Common Prayer 1979 (BCP), and other liturgical resources, with music from a variety of musical resources, authorized by the Episcopal Church, including the 1982 Hymnal, Lift Every Voice and Sing (LEVAS), and Enriching Our Worship (EOW).

If this is your first time to St Paul's - welcome! We're happy to have you with us!

When you arrive, just walk up the stairs into the Church, and a friendly usher will greet you and be happy to direct you.
