At St Paul's, what opportunities do I have to grow in faith?
Centre
Centering on Jesus through daily Bible readings & Devotions - find daily Devotions on our Facebook page here Centering on Jesus through Prayer - The Prayer Course is a great way to get praying with others.

Core
Core is about mentoring and meaningful conversations. Everybody needs caring people in their lives. Sometimes we call those people mentors - often they are older people, usually of the same gender, who we can develop trusted relationships with. Sometimes, these relationship are formed over coffee and conversations, sometimes these relationships are formed through really tough times.
Connect
Gathering with other Christians is a vital way of growing and sharing life, faith and what we hear and experience in worship. How can we help you connect?
Celebrate
Celebrate! It's all about worship! At St Paul's, Box Hill, we gather for worship every Sunday at 10.30 am. (For details of online worship services on our YouTube site, click here)
Worship stands at the centre of what we do and is the place where God meets us and feeds us for our life of love and service to God and others. |

"The best testimony to the truth of the Gospel is the quality of our life together....The character of our shared life - as congregations, communities and families - has the power to draw people to the kingdom or to push them away. How we live together is the most persuasive sermon we'll ever get to preach." (Living into Community, Pohl; Erdmans, 2013 p 2)
