Katy Denning
Lay Associate for Parish Life

    Katy Denning

    Lay Associate for Parish Life

    A native of the beautiful “Big Sky” country of Montana, Katy received her BA in English (with a minor in Geology) from The University of Montana and then, after living and working in both New York City and Denver, Colorado, she moved to New England and earned her Master of Divinity Degree from Weston Jesuit School of Theology in Cambridge (now the School of Theology and Ministry at Boston College) in 2005.

    Since then she has served as a Pastoral Associate at a Parish, a High School Theology Teacher, Campus Minister and Director of Mission and Ministry in a variety of parish and educational settings. She was most recently the Director of Admission for a small preschool and elementary school in Newton.

    Katy has been married for 13 years to her husband Brian and they have two children, Gavin and Leah. She and her family began attending St. Paul’s on the First Sunday of Advent in 2015 shortly after moving to Natick from Somerville and have enjoyed becoming active members of such a warm and welcoming community. Her interests include nurturing Women’s Spirituality, exploring Trinitarian Theology and Feminist Theology and finding new ways to live as a family through the Liturgical Year/Seasons. In addition, she loves getting out in nature and hiking, traveling with family and friends to new places and the poetry of Mary Oliver!

    Service Times

    All Are Welcome!

    8:00 a.m. In-person Service:

    Early on Sundays, St. Paul's gathers for a simple Eucharistic Liturgy with no music. This service runs about 35 minutes long. During the season of Lent (February 26 - March 26) the 8:00 a.m. service is the Rite 1 service from the Book of Common Prayer.

    10:00 a.m. In-person & Live-Streamed Service:

    Join with the community of St. Paul's Natick as we gather later each Sunday morning for a Eucharistic Liturgy with our choir and music minister. This service runs a little over an hour long and is most often the Rite 2 service from the Book of Common Prayer.

    Our in-person service is available to attend virtually as a Zoom webinar and is also live-streamed to both our YouTube and Facebook pages so that you have a choice of platforms!


    We also suggest that if you have been a Covid-19 close contact, have any cold symptoms, or have been traveling during the week leading up to a Sunday morning, you would consider masking for the sake of others.

    We encourage each parishioner and visitor to St. Paul’s to do what feels right to them, for their own health and for the health of others around them.

    We recognize many people are comfortable without a mask, and others prefer or need to continue to wear a mask, and we support and welcome people to make their own choices on wearing a mask right now.

    Baptism. Communion. Marriage. Funerals. At these special times, we celebrate them as sacraments. According to the Book of Common Prayer, sacraments are "outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual grace, given by Christ as sure and certain means by which we receive that grace." We look forward to sharing with you in these special sacramental moments.

    We Episcopalians believe in a loving, liberating, and life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and resurrection saved the world. We have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests, and deacons in our church. Laypeople and clergy cooperate as leaders at all levels of our church. Leadership is a gift from God, and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of sexual identity or orientation.

    We believe that God loves you – no exceptions.

    Stewardship is about more than money. It’s about giving our time, talent and treasure to take care of the world that God has created for us. As God’s people we are stewards of creation. St. Paul’s receives no financial support from the Diocese. Our rector, staff and programming would not be possible without contributions from you.

    Consider Stewardship as giving back to God that which God has already given to us.

    Our campaign theme is More than Enough, and it comes from the end of Luke’s version of the feeding of the five-thousand. Responding to Jesus’ call, the gathered crowd turns their pockets inside out, shakes out their blankets, rummages through their parcels to find enough to take care of the needs of the community. And what do they realize? That by the miracle of faith and the action on Love, there was more than enough, an abundance of leftovers!

    Every gift of wealth, works and wisdom goes toward our ministry and mission, and your gift is essential to us.

    Altar flowers beautify the Church and are an excellent way to give in memory of, or in honor of a family member or a friend. Currently the cost of Altar flowers are $35 per vase. There are slots available for two vases per Sunday, except on Palm Sunday when there are only palms and on Easter and Christmas Eve when there are multiple donors. After the services, the flowers are given to those who are sick or shut-in, unless otherwise requested by the donor.
