Welcome to St. Paul's United Methodist Church, Brick, NJ

Welcome to St. Paul's: Your First Visit

Stepping into a new church for the first time can feel a little unfamiliar, but you don't have to wonder what to expect. At St. Paul's, we want you to feel right at home from the moment you arrive. Whether you’ve attended church your whole life or are walking through our doors for the very first time, there is a place here for you and your family.

Families & Children

Children of all ages are always welcome in our worship services! We love the energy and presence of little ones, and you never have to worry about quiet whispers or restless feet. We offer flexible options so your family can choose what works best:

First Service (9:00 AM):

This service includes a special Children’s Message early in worship. Afterward, families have complete flexibility—children are welcome to:

• Remain in the sanctuary with their parents for the rest of the service,
• Attend Sunday School for age-appropriate lessons and activities, or
• Spend time in our Nursery, where caring volunteers provide a safe, fun environment.

Second Service (10:00 AM):

While dedicated childcare, nursery, and Sunday school classes are not staffed during the second service, children are always welcome to remain with their families throughout the worship service.  Activity bags and worship resources are available to keep little hands engaged.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT ARE YOUR SERVICES LIKE?

Whether through music, prayer, or preaching, God's word is at the center of all our gatherings. Each service includes a time of prayer, preaching, and giving. The sermons are built on God’s Word, not the pastor's ideas, and aim at transforming our lives to be more like Jesus Christ.

WHERE SHOULD I PARK?

We have a large parking lot at the rear of the church, with designated handicap parking spots near the front door.

WHERE SHOULD I GO WHEN I ENTER THE BUILDING?

The main entrance for the church sanctuary service is the double doors on the left, facing from the parking lot. Greeters at the doors will be happy to help you find your way.

DO YOU PROVIDE CHILD CARE?

We provide clean, well-staffed nurseries for infants and toddlers during the 9 am service.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

At our church, we care far more that you’re here than what you’re wearing. You’ll see a little of everything on Sunday mornings—some people prefer casual clothes, others dress more formally, and in the summer you’ll even see plenty of shorts. Whatever you choose, come knowing that this is a place to worship God, not a place to be judged for your appearance. Just come as you are—we’re glad you’re here.
