St Paul's Church

About this church

St. Paul's Church in Laurel, Delaware, holds Sunday church services from 10 to 11 a.m. on Old Stage Road. The congregation describes itself as an independent church whose theology is rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, and its statement of beliefs draws on the Apostles' Creed. Worship includes prayer and the two sacraments of baptism and communion, and grape juice is used for communion. Handmade prayer shawls are blessed during the worship service before they are given to people facing illness, death, or loss.

Outreach is a large part of church life. A back pack ministry partners with Laurel Elementary School to send weekly take-home meals and snacks to children facing food insecurity, with extra meals at Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Other ministries include Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes, blankets for the homeless, school supplies, and a Souper Bowl Sunday soup drive for local food pantries. A group called Crocheting for Christ, active since 2013, makes the prayer shawls and meets on Monday mornings, according to the church calendar. The calendar also lists a Ladies Fellowship Gathering and a prayer meeting on Wednesdays. Visitors can pick up the church's cookbook after services. Because times can change, confirm the current schedule on the church website or by calling 302-542-7032.
