“Mission is more than just something we do; it is a deep part of who we are as Christians. A missionary has defined mission as “infecting others with hope” I can think of no better definition of what it is to be part of God’s mission—to be signs of hope in the world and to receive hope from others.”
With a heart for education and community vitality, St. Paul's extends the ministry of the church to neighbors in the greater Houston area through our local and global relationships.
