Anglican Parish of St. David and St. Paul

Nestled in the beauty of the Sunshine Coast in the historic town site of Powell River St. David and St. Paul is a spiritual home for those who are seeking the rich liturgy of the Anglican Church and a place to express the holiness of a life saved by the love of Christ, through the grace of God in the power of the Holy Spirit. We are a diverse, inclusive and vibrant community gathering on Sundays for Holy Communion or Eucharist (Greek- thanksgiving). Our worship is enhanced by our talented musicians and enthusiastic choir. Much of the service can be found in our easy to follow bulletin. We love to sing traditional, modern and contemporary music. Come as you are, with children or without, in jeans, or more dressed up, single, married or partnered, from an Anglican background, other backgrounds or no church affiliation. We are a Christian community that values Christian formation, the arts, children in our midst and the ever challenging baptismal identity calling us to engage in concrete actions that promote and contribute to peace and justice in the world, in the wider community and in ourselves.more info
