We are committed to strengthening our faith and supporting each other on our spiritual journeys. We use our gifts and talents to follow Christ's teachings.
We are a welcoming mix of Christians with diverse accomplishments, backgrounds and opinions. We worship. We celebrate. We question. We listen. We study. We pray.

Headlines and Breaking News!
O merciful Father, comfort all who are in distress in the wake of the mudslides affecting those along the north fork of the Stillaguamish River. Give courage to those who search for family, friends and neighbors, so they will not be lost in danger or despair. Show your compassion to those who have lost loved ones, that they may feel your presence and live in hope of the resurrection. Strengthen those who have lost homes and possessions but have their lives, that they may embrace the precious gift of one another. Receive into your arms your children whose lives have been swept away, that they rest in your everlasting peace through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

"I appreciate all the choices for Faith Formation and for the variety of programs to encourage community participation in the church, in greater Bellingham, and in the world."
"I love the music and the service and the many chances to serve."
"I have come to St. Paul’s in grief, in need, in turmoil, and in joy. I have never left without a sense of great comfort and caring"
Music. Flowers. Eucharist. Prayer book. Liturgy. People. Children. Concern. People who serve each other and their neighbor both near and far. Confession. Education.
