St. Paul’s Episcopal Church is an open, inclusive, and welcoming community. We are a constituent parish of the Diocese of Ohio, the Episcopal Church, and the Anglican Communion.

In the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition, we recognize that the Altar is God’s Table, not our own. Therefore, all who come seeking Christ at St. Paul’s Parish are invited and welcomed to join us in receiving the Blessed Sacrament.

If you are seeking a spiritual home, we invite you to visit us and, if you like what you find, to join us.

St. Paul’s Mission

St. Paul’s Parish exists to advance the Kingdom of God through liturgical worship, spiritual education, personal growth, and service to others.

Our reason for being is to set hearts on fire for Jesus Christ. That’s what we will do at every corporate and individual opportunity – every worship service, every outreach activity, every art show or performance, every fellowship activity, every personal interaction.

We will be a central and integral part of the Medina community; St. Paul’s Parish will be one of our city’s leading Christian churches  advancing the Kingdom of God through vibrant and exciting liturgy and worship, social justice ministries, promotion of the arts, and support of education.

Our Chalice will always be full of the Spirit of Christ!

Diocese of Ohio’s Mission

The mission of the Diocese of Ohio is to build healthy communities that:

  • GROW in faith, numbers, and resources for mission,
  • GIVE sacrificially as a spiritual surrender of self to God, and
  • SERVE the world together as the risen body of Jesus Christ.

The Episcopal Church’s Mission

The mission of the Church is to restore all people to unity with God and
each other in Christ. The Church pursues its mission as it prays and
worships, proclaims the Gospel, and promotes justice, peace, and love.
The church carries out its mission through the ministry of all its members.
