WELCOME MESSAGE

A smiling priest standing in a church sanctuary, wearing a green liturgical vestment with gold embroidery and a cross design, with an altar in the background.

Guided by the patronage and intercession of St. Paul, we embrace the apostolic tradition passed down through the Church’s history under the direction of the Holy Spirit. Inspired by our patron’s example, we seek to respond to the universal call to holiness by fulfilling God’s will and living as apostles. At St. Paul Parish, we live out this mission through ministries focused on religious education, community service, and worship, offering many opportunities for all to participate in the life and mission of the Church.

We warmly welcome all visitors and tourists who wish to join our parish family in celebrating Holy Mass and other parish activities. Come share in the joy and blessing of our Catholic faith.

Yours sincerely in Christ Jesus,
Fr. Francisco Franquiz, Pastor
