Newcomers, Welcome to St. Paul’s!
St. Paul’s Episcopal Church is a dynamic and growing community located in Natick, a western suburb of Boston (also known as Metrowest). We are a diverse group of people, united by a common purpose: seeking to live out lives that respond wholeheartedly to the love that God has for us in Jesus Christ.
Our tradition is Episcopal, which means that we are both “Reformed” and “Catholic.” By creatively weaving tradition and change together, we are grounded in traditional Christianity and also open to new means of expressing our faith. The community is highly receptive to the gifts that newcomers bring to our life as a church. These gifts and abilities help reshape our community in continually new and exciting ways, making us fully alive in Christ.
Please note that you do not have to be a member of the Episcopal Church to participate in worship and ministry at St. Paul’s.

We seek a deeper communion with God, with each other and the rest of God's creation.
We reach beyond ourselves, both in our shared spiritual journeys and in our service to our neighbors, near and far. We meet God together in our shared worship, prayers, study, service and fellowship.
We love and serve the Christ we find in each other.
