In Our Community & Beyond

St. Paul’s offers many mission & service opportunities for parishioners of all ages to live out their baptismal promises to “strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being.” Community engagement at St. Paul’s is both an exploration and expression of faith. Through service, we seek to build connections rooted in God’s call to love our neighbors as ourselves. Our community partners include:
