Worship With Us
Sundays at 10:15 am
We gather weekly for worship, fellowship, and Sunday School at 440 Hoboken Avenue, Jersey City, NJ 07306.
Who is welcome? Everyone.
Can’t worship in person? Services are live-streamed on Facebook Live.
You Are Welcome Here
At St. Paul’s, we believe that love, inclusion, and justice are at the heart of who the Church should be, and we are proud to be a Reconciling in Christ Congregation.
We welcome everyone–especially those who have ever felt left out by churches in the past because of who they are, who they love, what they look like, how they move through the world, or how much they have.
You’re invited to join us, just as you are.
Join Us on Sundays!
Sunday School
Join us for a multi-age class of singing, storytelling, conversation, and art about the life of Christ and the Old Testament stories. Confirmation classes are also offered.
Fellowship
Every Sunday, we have fellowship after service with coffee, snacks, and good company. Our Loaves & Fishes potluck occurs every last Sunday of the month.
Music
St. Paul’s is blessed to have an acoustically rich worship space. Worship features our unique pipe organ, with special performances by our choir and bell choir on select Sundays.

Sunday School
Saint Paul’s Sunday school is a multi-age class that meets almost every week after service, excluding summers. We begin each class with singing, followed by a time of storytelling, conversation, and art. Children are invited to respond to the day’s lesson through studio arts, block building, instrumentation, and drama.
There is always one parent present along with the teacher.
We cover the life of Christ, the Old Testament stories, and reflect on current events and social justice in a developmentally appropriate way.
Older students attend confirmation classes led by the Pastor. Adults new to and curious about faith through a Lutheran lens are welcome to attend Confirmation as well.
