St. Paul's Episcopal Church -

Worship services at St. Paul's reflect the warmth and hospitality of our parish family. Visitors frequently comment not only the beauty of our liturgy, but how at home they felt worshiping with us.

Worship at St. Paul's is a Christ-centered celebration of The Holy Eucharist (which means "Thanksgiving") following the Book of Common Prayer. This service is also sometimes referred to as the Mass or Holy Communion. Enriched by centuries of tradition, our worship services bring Scripture alive in the context of the current world and nourish us through Christ's real spiritual presence in the sacrament of consecrated (blessed) bread and wine. We are inspired by God's Word and nourished by Christ’s presence so we can grow closer to God and to serve others in Christ's name. All baptized Christians are invited to receive the Holy Communion.

The 8:00 AM Sunday service is a contemplative service of The Holy Eucharist (Rite I) using Elizabethan English in our prayers. Our 10:30 AM Sunday service is a celebration of The Holy Euhcarist (Rite II) using contemporary English for our prayers and includes organ, choir, and hymns sung by the congregation. The third Sunday of the month is our Children's Eucharist at the 10:30 service and features prayers, music, and a sermon designed for children.

Throughout the year we celebrate various seasonal services of worship and devotion that include: Advent Lessons & Carols, Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, and Easter. On the first Wednesday of every month we hold a Taize service featuring the contemplative music and prayers of the ecumenical Taize community. In October 2006 we held our first U2 Eucharist (U2charist) that features the music of U2 and highlights the ONE Campaign & Millennium Development Gooals (MDGs) as part of our effort to Make Poverty History.

We invite you to join us for worship at St. Paul's!
