Statement of Mission and Ministry

St. Paul's Church, Wickford is a loving community of Christians seeking to be faithful to God and renewed through the Gospel. The mission and ministry of St. Paul's is to love God through:

  • The sharing of the sacraments, worship and prayer,
  • Ministering to people and spreading God's word,
  • Seeking to become better stewards of God's gifts,
  • Working toward the Kingdom of God within us and in the world.

The N.K. Food Pantry can always use our help. They are in need of staples such as baked beans, tuna, peanut butter and jelly, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, macaroni, cereal. There are bins at St.Paul's, Dave's in Wickford, the Standard Times and Town Hall. Please consider making a donation.




EPISCOPAL CHARITIES enables Rhode Islanders to cross the bridge to a better life! With our support and prayers, there CAN be more light in this world to break through the darkness – so that the poor, desperate, underprivileged, and needy may see that hope is not out of reach, and that their faith may be stronger in spite of truly difficult circumstances.

As of May 3rd, 164 households have pledged a total of $31,667 which is 79% of our parish goal of $40,117. A heartfelt “THANK YOU” to ALL who have contributed thus far. We are especially grateful for the 38 households who were able to increase their pledge and to the 25 new households who have joined in supporting Episcopal Charities this year. If you have yet to respond, please be as generous as you are able in your support. You may place your pledge card in the offering, or you may bring it to the office or mail it to St. Paul’s Church this week. Every gift matters and every gift helps.

Our restored steeple
A major project during the summer of 2003 was the complete restoration of our bell tower. some pictures during restoration  (updated 12-13-03)

Restored Cross on steeple The completion of the work was cause for a Lift High The Cross celebration on Sunday, November 2, 2003, as the refurbished cross was raised to the top of the tower. This was a once in a lifetime experience.



St. Pauls received an award from the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission on April 23, 2005 for the restoration of our bell tower.
