St Paul's Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church gathers Sundays at 10:15 a.m. in Midtown Ventura, with the service also available online. The parish dates its first worship to January 1888 and summarizes its enduring mission in three movements: follow Jesus, nurture ministries, and welcome all. Worship uses the Book of Common Prayer, readings from both Testaments, a Psalm, Gospel, sermon, and the structured participation characteristic of the Episcopal tradition.

Children of every age are welcome in the service, while childcare is available for ages two through thirteen. Sunday school, children’s choir, and acolyte service give younger members ways to learn and lead rather than remaining spectators. The church also connects worship with neighborhood outreach, including opportunities to serve hungry neighbors. Someone unfamiliar with Episcopal liturgy can use the newcomer guide to understand how Scripture, shared prayer, tradition, reason, and experience fit together. The single Sunday hour keeps planning straightforward; arrive early enough for family check-in or use the stream to preview the liturgy.
