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.

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 about 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 channel and website so that you have a choice of platforms!


We also suggest that if you have been a Covid-19 close contact or have any cold symptoms, you would consider masking for the sake of others or joining us on-line

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.

Welcome in Love I'm New Life Events Leadership What is The Episcopal Church?

Whoever you are, wherever you come from, and wherever you’ve been, we welcome you. Whatever your race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, we celebrate you.

Whether you wonder what an “Episcopalian” is, or have been one since birth, there is a place for you here. In this place, there is room for your questions, your stories, your laughter, your doubt, your grief, and your most authentic self.

You’ll find kindred spirits here and people who think differently and still love you. We’re here for your spiritual shelter to help you on your journey. There is forgiveness here. And Grace. And Joy. And Love. And God.

You are welcome here. Come as you are.

Welcome

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.

You do not have to be a member of the Episcopal Church to participate in worship and ministry at St. Paul’s.

We often gather for coffee after the 10:00 service in the first floor of the church.

We look forward to welcoming you! Please participate to whatever extent you feel comfortable.

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.

Our clergy and staff love and serve the people of our parish and our community. They help all to Welcome in Love, Worship with Joy, Grow in Faith, Work for Justice, Seek and Serve Christ in All Persons.

The vestry is comprised of nine members, three of whom are elected every three years to three-year terms. Additionally, there is a junior and senior warden, a treasurer and assistant treasurer, and a clerk. Vestry members provide leadership and guidance for all of our ministries.

Clergy & Staff Vestry Directory

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.

Find out more about our 2023 Stewardship campaign

Episcopal churches are self-funded. St. Paul’s relies on Stewardship pledges to fund nearly 80% of the operations of our church life.Your pledge allows the Vestry and Finance Committee to prepare a sound, realistic budget. Thank you for your commitment to St. Paul's. To learn more, visit our Stewardship page as well.

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.
