Testimonials
I joined St. Paul’s in 2006, but my spiritual journey began many years earlier. Growing up in Northwest Indiana I attended a Byzantine Catholic church with my parents and two brothers. The church, founded by Ukrainian immigrants, was steeped in the traditions of that old and unfamiliar world so it was very difficult to feel any type of connection at such a young and impressionable age.
Like many young people at that age, I didn’t feel like my life had time for church or that my heart had any room for organized religion so I just stopped going. It wasn’t until my mid-thirties that I realized God had indeed planted a seed in my heart; one that never died out, but years later now needed to be nurtured and fed.
I came to St. Paul’s because I had heard that the Episcopal church was similar to the Catholic traditions I grew up with. After attending a few services I came to notice that, despite those similarities, things in this new-to-me church were not so black-and-white the very traditional beliefs that were taught in the more traditional Catholic church.
I feel that St. Paul’s is a great place to both reaffirm and grow my faith. I never feel threatened or ashamed if I don’t understand a teaching or if my personal beliefs are not the same as everyone else’s. I enjoy the diversity of the congregation and get a lot out of spending time with so many people from different backgrounds as mine. We are always growing in faith, even if that means we sometimes question our faith; but, I know that my friends at St. Paul’s are there for me and will support me during those times as well the time when I am spiritually thriving.
This is what brought me, and keeps me coming back to St. Paul’s.
“As a parent of small kids, taking the kids to church is stressful because you worry that they will disturb people, so it was very nice to hear that people enjoyed having my kids in church. My kids also quickly became very comfortable at St. Paul’s. They looked forward to going to church each week. Everyone was very welcoming to them and we felt that people genuinely cared about us and wanted to get to know us.”

“St. Paul’s Preschool is truly a special place. I was able to send our youngest children here for their first school experience, and the staff quickly became like family. We are so thankful for all of the love, nurturing, and guidance they provided our kids. The entire staff, from teachers to the Director, are so caring and kind. It is such a wonderful feeling when your children are excited and love to go to school each day. We will forever be grateful for the foundation and compassion our children received at this wonderful place!” Amber N.
“From the moment we visited St. Paul’s we knew it was the right school for our kids. The staff members are always welcoming and care for the students like their own. Our daughter and son both came home happy every day and learned valuable life skills while also having so much fun!” Lynn S.
“Our experience at St. Paul’s was wonderful. Our oldest was diagnosed with High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder about a month before school started, and the staff members were amazing with him. They accommodated his therapists that would come to school and helped him learn social skills that he carried with him to elementary school. His younger brother came after the eldest was out and was giddy saying all he could get to do because he saw his brother go through fun activities and plays. Both boys still talk about their preschool, and we always say ‘hello’ whenever we drive by. Truly a gem of a preschool with a family atmosphere.” Becca P.

July Rector’s Study
Beloved, Come as you are; you can change inside. I hope you have noticed our church sign by now, after it has been there for a few years. Fr. Roger and Beau used to change the message regularly, but I have been too lazy to change it. I prayed for a church-sign fairy to appear […]
