Giving and living for the sake of others is right at the heart of the Good News, and it’s liberating! The gospel turns us to God and turns us to love others.
For over 150 years, St. Paul’s has reached out to meet needs in Akron, in our nation, and overseas. We support many mission endeavors and social agencies. Week by week we actively create and train ministry teams for what goes on inside and outside of our walls.
Find a new freedom and a deep sense of purpose by serving regularly!

This month we put a spotlight on The Barnabas Employment Ministry. . .
Now remarkably beginning its ninth year, we support through our Easter Fund, a program that helps (primarily) those who are reentering society find entry level jobs, and gain confidence in themselves. Operating through South Street Ministries, in any given year, Barnabas may place up to 60 people in jobs. Each week, job seekers receive help with resume writing, interviewing basics, job leads, peer support, connecting with other necessary programs/organizations, and transportation. In November, a short video with Donovan Harris gave us a look into the work of Barnabas. See our Missions Page.
