Loving

“love one another as I have loved you.”
John 15:12
All we do is based in love for God and one another. Our God gave up everything because of his love for us; we are commanded to love just as extravagantly. We believe love is the antidote to the violence, hate and selfishness that pervades our world. “If it’s not about love, it’s not about God.”—Presiding Bishop Michael Curry

“where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
Matthew 6:21
We worship a God of abundance and we honor God when we give generously. St. Paul’s shares our beautiful spaces, our church resources and our personal finances to build up the kingdom of God. Generosity opens our hearts and frees us from greed and materialism.
Our values reflect our 183 year history, reveal who we are and act as our code of ethics. They give us a shared language, clarify what we do, give us focus and keep us accountable.
