God loves all people and wants them to come to love Him and each other.
(Ezekiel 33:11; 1 Timothy 2:3,4; 2 Peter 3:9; 1 John 4:16)
God’s Word is true, inerrant, powerful and has the ability to change lives. Romans 10:17; 2 Timothy 3:14-16; Hebrews 4:12
 
 
 
 
 
 
God has uniquely gifted each person to do good works which He expects His children to do.  Matthew 25:34-40; 1 Peter 4:10; Romans 12:3-21
 
It is not good for people to live in isolation. God intends for us to share His love with nonbelievers and believers alike through intentional relationships. Genesis 2:18; Galatians 6:9,10; Hebrews 10:25
 
The Christian faith is best lived in close relationships with other people. Proverbs 27:17; Acts 2:42-47; Romans 12:9-13
 
Our greatest purpose in life is to be used by God to bring others into a saving relationship with Jesus their Savior. Matthew 28:19,20; John 20:30,31

Because we believe these things, that is why we do what we do at St. Paul. God loves all people and desires to connect with them through his love and grace. We, too, love all people and strive to help them connect their life and faith, which means we would love to connect with you!
