Welcome!
We know being new can feel daunting. We hope the information here will help you feel at ease stepping through our doors for the first time.
About Us
We are a family who share in the love of Jesus Christ. Our open evangelical Anglican church is full of ordinary people – office workers, doctors, drivers, teachers, unemployed, retired people. Some of us are single, married, divorced, single parents or widowed. We welcome you whoever you are, wherever you’re from.
Rev. Jeni McQuaid is the Vicar of St Paul’s. She is supported by a brilliant team. You can find out more about some of them here.
Services
We love to worship together. With four services each week we hope you can find a service that feels like home.
We also hold special services thorough the year including Easter and Holy Week, Christmas and Advent, Baby Loss Awareness, Remembrance Sunday Service.
It is also a privilege to hold services for Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals.
Regular events
There is so much more than “Sundays” at St Pauls. Our mid-week groups are at the heart of the life of the church. Whether you want to join us for something purely social, explore the basics of the Christian faith, or go deeper there is something for you.
Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith which we run once a term over eleven weeks.
Each session looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. No two Alphas look the same, but generally they have three key things in common: food, a talk and good conversation.
St Paul’s Kids meet during the 10am service on Sundays with groups for children from birth to age 13.
A couple of times a month Youth @ St Pauls meet together for pizza and worship at the SIX:30 service.
On Wednesday Evenings there are events for youth in school years 7-13.
Connect Groups are a brilliant way to build community as we connect with God and with one another. They run for a term; weekly or fortnightly, and have a focus – such as a theme or interest.
Home Groups focus is on doing life together, and that looks a little different for each group. Most share refreshments together, take time to share our weeks and pray for one another. Some groups follow a study course or look at a passage of Scripture together.
Prayer is central to the life of the church. We hold a joint churches prayer meeting each month either at St Pauls or All Saint. We also host a monthly day of prayer and fasting. We would love to support you in prayer you can get in touch though our prayer request form
Community Café happens on the first Saturday of every month. The Café is open 10:30-12:00 all the food and drink is free. There’s space to meet people, live music, and a selection of toys and children’s clothes for you to choose from.
There’s so much happening you can find out more on our What’s on page.
