St. Paul's Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Paul's Episcopal Church in La Porte gathers for worship on Sunday mornings at 9 a.m. for Holy Eucharist, preceded by an organ prelude that begins around 8:50 a.m. The church describes the service as traditional liturgy with rich music, both joyful and reverent. The congregation identifies with the Anglican tradition and has worshiped in La Porte since 1839. It meets in a downtown building at 1000 Michigan Avenue that is known for its stained-glass windows. The Sunday service is also livestreamed on the church's Facebook page, and recorded services are posted on YouTube, which gives first-time visitors a preview of what to expect.

Coffee hour follows worship in the downstairs parish hall, which is reachable by chair lift. A Morning Prayer and Bible Study meets on Thursdays at 9 a.m. The church also hosts a free community dinner on Tuesday evenings at 6 p.m. on select dates, with doors opening at 5:30, and a free half-hour First Friday Concert at 12:10 p.m., where guests are encouraged to bring a lunch. An introductory session called St. Paul's 101 covers the church's history, vision, and beliefs. Visitors should use the Harrison Street doors, which are the accessible entrance.
