What We Believe

Welcome > What We Believe

Our Mission

St. Paul's by-the-Sea expresses the love of Christ through an environment that engages the mind, body, and spirit, encouraging all people to make a difference through worship, education, fellowship and community service.

Our Vision

God is calling to draw on our strong Christian foundation to be a vibrant, diverse, actively engaged, compassionate Episcopal church community who loves God and welcomes all people, and who demonstrates those commitments through the creation of a healing environment in worship, education, fellowship, and community service.

Faith

Faith is the cornerstone of our church. It is part of every activity that we do, every meeting that we hold. We believe in our Lord, and that our actions are a reflection of his goodness.

Scripture

We look to the Lord for guidance in our lives. In Scripture, we find all that we need to guide us in the right path. Reading and understanding Scripture helps us all live meaningful lives.

Community

Join us. We welcome each and every one of you to encounter the Lord's unconditional love with us. Inside each of us is a purpose and meaning to be fulfilled by God.
