When You Give to St. Paul’s, Good Things Happen!
St. Paul’s is more than a gathering place for spiritual worship. We have a very active outreach mandate that is made possible through the generous sharing of time and resources by our staff and parishioners. Here is a small sampling of the community activities and programs which we implement:
- We build relationships between students and community members at our monthly Red Door Coffeehouse, with regular attendance of over 50 persons.
- Direct support for over 300 volunteer student placements in our city through providing free office space for Open Circles Student Organization.
- We host a Student Study Hall for McMaster Students every exam time that is deeply needed and appreciated by students.
- Church donations enable a Monthly Service at Parkview Seniors Home.
- Our Rector is available as the on call Anglican Priest at McMaster Hospital, often called to Baptize dying children or visit the critically ill and give sacramental and other comfort to families.
- We continue to serve all our members of all ages, from the Sunday School children, to the Afternoon Guild Members.
- We are seen to be leaders in supporting St. Matthew’s House, and Chaplaincy at McMaster.

Could you please tell me what the Red Door Cafe is? Thank you!
Hi CW – Here is a description from the Red Door Cafe website: “Red Door is a monthly open mic coffeehouse that features local performers and raises awareness about social justice causes. Our events are a supportive space where people of all ages can explore creative expression and meet in a fun, relaxed environment.” The next Red Door Cafe is Saturday January 28. Here is a link to their website where you can find more information: http://www.reddoor.herobo.com/
