Worship

St. Paul’s community is distinctive for its awe-inspiring and participatory worship.

The 9:00 a.m. Traditional Mass is a quiet and contemplative celebration of Holy Communion using either the beautiful Elizabethan English of Rite I or the modern English of Rite II.

BishopBrunoFrMarkThe Choral Mass at 10:30 a.m. is a deeply reverent and joy-filled experience that draws the members of our community into whole-hearted worship of God. The congregation sings most of the liturgy together. Central to our worship is our choir, which supports the congregation in singing the liturgy.

Every third Sunday, we celebrate a healing Mass, with anointing and laying-on of hands for healing. The healing Mass is characterized by a deep level of caring for one another. We chant Taize music, and sing spirituals and devotional hymns during this service.

We frequently have dialogue homilies and bibliodramas, where the members of our community offer their reflections on the Sunday readings.

Our worship space is utterly beautiful, full of color, and our community is gathered in circles around the altar, the Baptismal font, and the preaching lectern. worshipspaceThe colors of the icons, stained glass windows, and the San Damiano cross fill the worship space with warm hues of gold, brown, blue, and red to surround the worshipping community with feelings of warmth and reverent joy.

Our children and youth have central roles in our worship. Visitors to St. Paul’s come back again and again to participate in our uniquely beautiful worship, and many decide to join our community.
