Church on the Beach
Due to the weather, this Sunday’s Church on the Beach service is moving indoors to the St. Paul's Parish Hall. The service will still begin at 8:30 am.
Since this Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost, we still invite everyone to wear red — but feel free to make it beachy! Break out your red Hawaiian shirts, tropical dresses, sandals, sun hats, and other festive beach attire as we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit.

Live God's Love
Welcome to St. Paul's, Kent! We are one of the oldest Episcopal churches in the country. As Christ commanded, our doors are open to all of God's children. The spiritual foundation of the Episcopal Church rests on three tenets - scripture, tradition and reason. On these pages we invite you to learn more about participation in our faith community, our beautiful historic churchyard and our outreach activities.
Our regular Sunday services are held in the sanctuary at 8:00 am (said eucharist) and 10:30 am (with music). From time to time, we also offer special services, celebrate with different liturgies, or worship in alternate locations. See the calendar for details about upcoming services.
We are pleased to announce the appointment of
Fr. Michael Miller Hadaway, Jr., as our new permanent rector.
