Saint Paul is a diverse -- and, we think, unique -- congregation of Africans and longtime locals. You'll see the diversity in worship styles and music. Our traditional choir (with organ) might sing an old hymn, followed by a song by our African choir Calabash, often in their native language. You'll hear contemporary praise music, too. But Saint Paul is a church where you can be yourself. That's what "come as you are" means to us. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, what clothes you wear, where you live and work, or where you might be (or might not be) on your spiritual journey. God takes each of us "as is," and then we help each other grow to become everything God intended us to be.
What makes HIRC unique is its dynamic emphasis on the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit. Services are characterized by passionate worship and an expectation of miracles, healing, deliverance, and prophetic encounters. The church fosters an atmosphere where attendees often remark, “I actually see the things in the Bible happening here,” highlighting its commitment to living out the full gospel .
