When you come to St. Paul's you can expect to meet a variety of different people; black, white, rich, poor, young and old. Many are drawn to the Episcopal Church because of its rich history, which dates back almost to the time of Jesus, or its worship-style which is as old as the second century AD and invites personal participation in the service. Many are drawn to St. Paul's parish because of the warm and interesting people you will meet when you visit us. For whatever reason you come, please know that you cannot "mess up" during worship. You will see different people honoring God in a variety of fashions; please don't feel like you have to follow. You may be as active or passive a worshipper as you like, until you feel comfortable with a participatory worship service. No one will ever make you feel uncomfortable. Your worship is between you and God.
If you visit during the 7:45 am service , you can expect the service to be taken from a book called The Book of Common Prayer. This service celebrates Holy Communion each week and is typically small, quiet and contemplative. The page numbers for the service may be found in your bulletin.
If you visit us at the 9:00 am service , you will find contemporary music inspired by some of today's top worship leaders. The entire service is published on an overhead screen for your worshipping convenience. Children are encouraged to attend this service with their parents. Many parents discover that their children end up learning the songs and the prayers before they do. For a sample of the contemporary service music click here
If you attend the 11:00 am , you will find the traditional Anglican worship service at its best. You will find a quality choir and music played on a Casavant pipe organ. This service, like the early service, is read from The Book of Common Prayer. For a sample of the music at the traditional service click here
