As we are changed and transformed by the Gospel of Jesus, we begin to reach out to others. At St. Paul’s, we serve the community in many ways, and we partner with others in ministering in the Dallas area and in foreign countries.
Serving at St. Paul’s
- Worship Ministry
Worship at St. Paul’s requires many ministers. From Worship Hosts who welcome guests and assist with the offertory and Communion, Lectors who read our Bible lessons and lead the congregation in prayer to Chalice Bearers who assist with Communion. Younger members can help with carrying the Gospel book during the procession as well as act in the capacity of Acolyte to assist with preparing the table. Worship Safety members monitor the children’s wing and entrance to ensure the safety of our members and guests.
