Serve

“Shine as a light” in our community

In our baptismal covenant, we pledge to seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving our neighbors as ourselves. As members of St. Paul’s, we also pledge to shine as a light in the world to the glory of God. Together, we pledge to seek, serve, and shine by devoting our time, talents, and treasure to serve the most vulnerable in our community and around the world.

Explore all the ways to serve within St. Paul’s — for example, as an acolyte, on our Altar Guild, or in one of the children or adult choirs — and outside St. Paul’s through our many outreach ministries.
