Funerals at Old St. Paul’s Church

Funerals provide the sacred time and space for family and friends to mourn the loss of a loved one, to celebrate their life on earth, and to pray that the person will be entrusted into God’s further care. At Old St. Paul’s, the clergy are available to conduct funerals and memorial services using the service laid out in The Book of Common Prayer, 1979.

If you are interested in arranging for a funeral or memorial service to be held in the Church, please contact the Rector, The Rev. Mark Stanley at mark@stpaulsbaltimore.org, or call him at the Church office at 410-685-3404. A priest will call you to set up a time to meet in person and begin making plans for the service.

Grant, O Lord, to all who are bereaved the spirit of faith and courage, that they may have strength to meet the days to come with steadfastness and patience; not sorrowing as those without hope, but in thankful remembrance of your great goodness, and in the joyful expectation of eternal life with those they love. All this we ask in the Name of Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen

—The Book of Common Prayer 1982

Children’s Worship

During the first half of the 10:30 service, young children are invited to go downstairs to have their very own worship experience. Gathered in a circle on the floor, children are joyfully engaged through singing, playing percussion instruments, praying, and listening to the good news for the day. Families arriving for the service are invited to find a seat in a pew upstairs, sing the opening hymn together, and then when the priest invites children to go downstairs for Children’s Worship, they may go through the side door with their friends to gather in the Undercroft for a special worship time together. Children who are five and younger must be accompanied by a parent. Parents are always welcome to join us. Before the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, the children will rejoin their families upstairs so that all ages in our congregation can enjoy receiving communion together.

Weddings

The first step in arranging to have a wedding at Old St. Paul’s is to call the Church Office to speak with The Rev. Mark Stanley, Rector, to discuss your interest in Old St. Paul’s. Typically, couples meet with the officiating priest three times before the ceremony, as well as meeting once with our Director of Music Ministries.
