Directions and Parking
St. Paul’s UCC, founded in 1886, was chartered in 1887 as part of the Reformed Church in the United States, originally the German Reformed Church, dating from 1825 in America. St. Paul’s is a member of the United Church of Christ, formed in 1957 by a union of the Evangelical and Reformed Church and the Congregational Christian Churches. The focus of the church ministry is embodied in our Mission Statement.
Our Beliefs
“The United Church of Christ acknowledges as its sole head, Jesus Christ, Son of God and Saviour. It acknowledges as kindred in Christ all who share in this confession. It looks to the Word of God in the Scriptures, and to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, to prosper its creative and redemptive work in the world. It claims as its own the faith of the historic Church expressed in the ancient creeds and reclaimed in the basic insights of the protestant Reformers. It affirms the responsibility of the Church in each generation to make this faith its own in reality of worship, in honesty of thought and expression, and in purity of heart before God. In accordance with the teaching of our Lord and the practice prevailing among evangelical Christians, it recognizes two sacraments: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper or Holy Communion.”
