MAKING JESUS KNOWN
St. Paul has two campuses both found in Ocean Springs, MS. Our East Campus hosts our Modern Worship Services and is also where our Family ministries meet. Our Historic Downtown Campus hosts our Traditional Worship Service and our Preschool.
What We Believe
We believe in one God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the Savior of all persons who put their faith in Christ alone for eternal life. We believe those who receive new life in Christ are called to be holy in character and conduct and that they can live this way only by being filled with the Lord’s Spirit. We believe in the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible and seek to establish our faith and actions upon its teachings. We believe God wants people everywhere to know Him and that the purpose of the church is to tell the world about Christ through its worship, witness, and loving deeds.
St. Paul organized as a Methodist Church in 1853. While now an independent Methodist church since January 2024, St. Paul honors both its Methodist and Wesleyan heritage and continues to fully embrace Wesleyan theology as the lens through which it sees the Christian life.
It is from this rich heritage that our doctrine is established and from which our faith and practice continue to grow.
