weddings, baptisms & Funerals
We very much want to celebrate your important life events with you, your family and friends. We provide a delightful and sacred space that enables all to appreciate the Divine nature made manifest in those being married, those who give thanks in Baptism and celebrate your loved one’s life.

Josie's Baptism - 21 November 2021
On Sunday 21st November, the Feast of Christ the King, we were delighted to formally welcome Josie as a baptised member of St Paul’s.
It was a stunning open air service down at South Beach and Rev Gemma’s first taste of baptism Westralian style, a full on dunking in the Indian Ocean! Luckily, Rev Gemma wasn’t phased by blessing an entire ocean to become Josie’s holy water of baptism. And Josie’s godmum Bethan threw herself into the action too, helping Gemma to push Josie under.
What a joy to see so many of our wonderful community, from our elders to our very youngest member, celebrating on the beach with a fabulous service, swim and breakfast.
And there were more friends waiting to encourage Josie in this important milestone on her faith journey during the Morning Mass. Of course, we had to cap off our celebrations with gifts, champagne and cake at morning tea!
If you would like to find out more about a baptism at St Paul’s – whether in the ocean or in our beautiful stone font! – please email: parish.stpauls@gmail.com.
