Prayer and worship are the heart of the Episcopal  / Anglican Tradition.  Our Book of  Common Prayer gives us a history and commonality that describes who we are  and permits people of diverse backgrounds and at different places in their  faith journey to come together as one people to share prayer and worship.

At Saint Paul, the heart of our prayer and  worship is the Sunday Eucharist.  This  is a  special time for us when we come together as one people - as one family,  to be nourished in Word and in Sacrament so we are strengthened for our faith  journey.

We invite you to come pray with us! We invite you  to come celebrate with us! We invite you to come be with us so that together  we can build the Kingdom of God.

The links below will give you our weekend service  schedule and our weekday service schedule.   In addition there are links to samples of our actual services which  will show how are services are both similar and  different.

We are located at: 340 Locust Street, Columbia,  PA 17512. You may contact us by phone at 717-684-8496 or by email at 
stpaulepchcolumbia@earthlink.net.

You may also contact the  Rector, Rev. J. Patrick Peters,  directly at
