About Us

A former vicar at St. Paul's, the Rev. Bob Whyte, once wrote: "The welfare of the parish and all its people has always been central to our concerns. In this sense, St. Paul's was and remains committed to the catholic tradition of the Church. Catholic in its concern for the whole community and in its commitment to both the spiritual and material needs of its people. Catholic in its refusal to draw rigid lines between churchgoers and parishioners and in its openness to everyone." 

Our vision statement today reads: 

Our vision is of a church at the heart of the community, seen as welcoming all in friendship, whether regular worshippers or not, expressed through its range of worship, its concern for those in need, and its commitment to the flourishing of the community of Rusthall.
