Ephesians 4:11-16 (New International Version)

11  It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
12  to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up
13  until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

14  Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.
15  Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.
16  From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Safe Sanctuaries Policy

All ministries serving children and youth operate under St. Paul’s Safe Sanctuaries Policy. The goal of this policy is to ensure that St. Paul is a holy place of safety and security in which people of all ages can experience God’s love and grace.
St. Paul takes a number of steps to ensure the safety of all our young people, including conducting criminal background checks on all adults (both paid staff and volunteers) who work with children and youth; having at least two adults present at all times; and maximizing visibility by using open doors, Dutch doors and doors with windows
