About St. Paul
Our background
Welcome to St. Paul Lutheran Church and University Center. Simply put, we are a congregation of Christians with resolute faith. We believe that if we love God and let our faith in Jesus show us how to love each other, the world will take notice and follow in kind!
We've known God's plentiful grace.
We've experienced Jesus' love through His life, death and resurrection.
We've seen proof of His unfailing love.
Whether you're new to the area or have recently found yourself wandering in search of a new church home, we may be your answer. When you find a congregation that meets your spiritual needs, you become a witness to Jesus' love.
Our beliefs
With the universal Christian Church, The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God: the Father, creator of all that exists; Jesus Christ, the Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God's Word and Sacraments. The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one God.
