As Episcopalians, we are followers of Jesus Christ our Lord and we believe in the Holy Trinity (Father (Creator), Son (Christ), and Holy Spirit. We are members of the Anglican Communion, which is the third largest Christian denomination in the world.
We believe we are called to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ through Worship, Prayer, and Ministry in the world. Our goal is to model God's love for all humankind through love, kindness, concern, and support for the spiritual, physical, and mental well-being of ALL of God's children. We do this by being good stewards of our blessings; accepting, loving, and embracing all people in our parish and community.
We strive to love our neighbors as ourselves and respect the dignity of every person. We celebrate our unity in Christ while honoring our differences and always putting the work of love before uniformity of opinion.

our Staff
As a small parish, we have a small staff who does mighty work. Click the images below for more information and contact information.
St. Paul's Church is a Congregational church that is managed and maintained by volunteers within the parish. Our Vestry consists of a group of members elected to help make the major financial decisions of the parish. The Administrator and Rector work together with members of the Vestry to ensure that we are being good stewards of our gifts and the needs of the community are met.
Rector
The Rev. Allan Wallace is our full-time Rector (priest) who tends to the spiritual and pastoral needs of the parish. He also provides Christian Education and Formation, manages our building maintenance, and works within the community to build relationships and strive for justice for all of our neighbors. He preaches the Word and supports the facilitation of many of our ministries with the help of our curate, staff, and lay members in the parish.
Curate
The Rev. Dr. Cory Michael Irwin is our Curate (priest) who works with our rector in tending to the spiritual and pastoral needs of the parish. He also regularly preaches the Word and develops and implements Christian Formation opportunities. He also works closely with St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Jeffersonville through a joint agreement between parishes and the Episcopal Diocese of Indianapolis.
Parish Admin.
Marie O'Neil is a long standing parishioner of St. Paul's who was a natural fit for the Parish Administrator role. She started as a volunteer and did such an outstanding job, St. Paul's hired her. She is an amazing baker who supplies our homemade Communion bread and she continues to chair the Altar Guild.
Music Director
Theresa Bauer is a talented musician, organist, and choir director who rejoined St. Paul's in November 2022 after having explored other options for about fifteen years. We are so happy that she is back with us and is part of our team again!
Parish Accountant
Cindy Scroggins has been the Parish Accountant since 2009 working on a part-time basis ensuring that our financial records are maintained and assisting with payroll among many other
Vestry
The vestry members are elected by parishioners for 3 year terms. They work together with parishioners and the staff to help meet the needs of the community. The vestry meets at least once a month to make decisions for the future of St. Paul's Church. Click the picture to see our vestry members.
Sexton
Alex Tambriz serves as our Sexton, ensuring that our buildings are clean, safe, and stocked with supplies. We are grateful for his service to the church.
