Our Core Values

1. We are a congregation that stands on the Word of God for our guide.

At St. Paul we pray that all our decisions are based on God's Holy Word and seek his faithfulness in all our decisions. It is necessary that this is the first core value that stand on. Doing the right and faithful thing, even though it may hurt is a must. God has called us to be faithful to his Word and his will for our lives. This can never be comprised, even if success is the motivation of compromise.

John 3:36; 2 Timothy 3:16; Deuteronomy 6:6-9; John 5:39
