Jesus Christ is the one whom the Father anointed with the Holy Spirit and established as priest, prophet, and king. The whole People of God participates in these three offices of Christ and bears the responsibilities for mission and service that flow from them.

. . . the People of God shares in the royal office of Christ. He exercises his kingship by drawing all men to himself through his death and Resurrection. Christ, King and Lord of the universe, made himself the servant of all, for he came "not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." For the Christian, "to reign is to serve him," particularly when serving "the poor and the suffering, in whom the Church recognizes the image of her poor and suffering founder." The People of God fulfills its royal dignity by a life in keeping with its vocation to serve with Christ.

St. Paul Parish is a community dedicated to ensuring a safe environment for our children. The Child Abuse Prevention (CAP) Committee was formed to create support within the St. Paul Community for the prevention of child abuse, to serve as a resource for those with concerns about child abuse, to assist in the reporting of child abuse, and to advise the Parish on strategies to prevent child abuse. For further information about the CAP Committee at St. Paul's, please call 617-816-9278. If there is an emergency, call the DSS Hotline at 1-800-792-5200.
