Message from the Rector |
Welcome to Saint Paul’s!
There is a story in the gospel of John about two men who are curious about Jesus, and so they follow him around, watching and listening. Jesus finally turns around and asks them “What are you looking for?” Instead of some profound answer like “we seek the meaning of life” the two men are instead dumbfounded, and the best question they can come up with is “Where are you staying?”
Jesus says, “come and see”
Imagine if those two seekers were living in the 21st century. They might be doing what you are doing; surfing the web out of curiosity, or because you are looking for a place to belong, or perhaps looking for an answer to a deeper question.
It is our hope that this website can give you some of the information you need, but even more, it is an invitation to come and see. No matter where you are on your spiritual journey you are welcome here.
In Christ,
Thomas
