What does St. Paul’s mean to you? St. Paul’s has been and is a community of family and friends where we worship and try to carry out life through the two great commandments; to love God and to love one another as ourselves. It is where I find renewal, a place to grown and learn and a place to try to be a servant leader. St. Paul’s is an extraordinary place where we are inspired to carry out the “Dream of God” through caring people.
