We welcome as friends everyone, of any race, gender, creed, denomination, political affiliation, or sexual orientation, for all of  us "are one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:28

St. Paul's Episcopal Church of Bakersfield welcomes you to worship.  We invite you to join our inclusive community as we deepen our awareness of the presence of Jesus Christ in us through the Episcopal tradition of inclusivity, worship, and service.  We welcome all to share His joy and love with us, rejoicing in the transforming power of the Spirit. 

"[At St. Paul's clergy and laity] are sharing ministry . . . in a way that should be spotlighted for the rest of the church.  The joy and enthusiasm I saw in the congregation truly reflected the signs of the Holy Spirit."   
       The Rev. Canon Sarah, Shofstall        Diocese of Western Massachusetts
