St. Paul's-in-the-Pines Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Paul's-in-the-Pines Episcopal Church offers Christian Formation for all ages at 9 a.m. Sunday and Holy Eucharist, Rite II, at 10 at 1800 St. Paul Avenue in Fayetteville. The liturgy uses contemporary, accessible language while retaining Scripture readings, a sermon, communal prayer, and Communion open to baptized Christians. Music moves between classic Anglican hymns and gospel from other traditions, reflecting the congregation's multicultural identity. A men's Bible study meets at 8 a.m. Saturday, and midweek Bible study is published for 12:30 p.m. Wednesday. The atmosphere is deliberately practical and personal.

The congregation began in 1963-64 to serve military families connected with Fort Bragg and Pope Air Force Base; its earliest worship met in a converted garage before the first church building opened in 1964. Parishioners later designed, made, and installed the sanctuary's stained-glass windows themselves, giving the room a distinctive local story. Worship also has participatory roles for readers, ushers, acolytes, Communion ministers, and altar preparation. A newcomer can start with the 9 a.m. discussion without prior Bible experience or arrive for the main 10 a.m. Eucharist. Weekday learners should confirm the current calendar before traveling.
