History

Founded as a mission in 1887 by the Rev. Francis Johnstone Murdoch, St. Paul's has deep history in the city of Salisbury and in the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina.The church was consecrated in 1912 by Bishop Joseph Blount Cheshire, Jr. as 'St. Paul's Church, Chestnut Hill', designating the neighborhood where it stands, near the historic Chestnut Hill Cemetery.Our history continues to this day. We've recently baptized Francis Murdoch's great-great-great grandchildren at St. Paul's!

Worship

We worship according to the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer.Our service is both joyful and reverent.If you are not familiar with the rhythm of our worship, come and sit with us and feel the love of God.We will also help you find your way with bulletin, prayer book and hymnal if you like!

Grow in Faith

What binds us together at St. Paul's is our true desire to know God in our lives. We study Scripture, we ask the big questions, we live out what we believe, and we never stop growing.Come, grow with us.
