st pauls episcopal cathedral

St. Paul's is just two blocks from the former Murrah Federal Office Building, which we learned later when we visited that memorial site and museum. The chapel was not open when we stopped by, but a very nice woman let us in and gave us a short tour. It includes beautiful stained glass, what appear to be dark walnut pews and a beautiful courtyard. It was also interesting to learn about the impact on the church by the explosion and to see an exhibit on the church in the museum later.

My family and I always enjoy taking out of town guest to the Christmas Eve service. The church is very friendly and inviting to everyone that comes into the place of worship. Can;t go wrong!Praise God!

I arrived early in the morning and the secretary, Ann, was busy at her desk and also assisting a gentleman doing some repairs. She took the time to give me some history of the church, personally walked me over to the cathedral and though it was closed and the lights were turned off she turned on the lights and allowed me to stay as long as I wanted to take pictures. When I finished she then showed me the chapel, then took me to the courtyard and explained the various other areas, such as the fountain, labyrinth and the internment section. I was again allowed to roam the grounds on my own and take pictures and spend as much time as I needed to look around. Before I finally departed, I asked for any written information on the church. She gave me a lot of brochures and a nice bag to carry all of the information and invited me to join any of their services when I am in town on my next visit.This was a very beautiful church and the assistance of Ann was invaluable. I cannot say enough about my appreciation for everything that Ann provided on my visit. She was a great host! I would certainly recommend a visit to view this church.

As new guests, we were welcomed graciously by the congregation and clergy. They have three services to accommodate different worship styles.

The music and people are wonderful. The chapel has amazing stained glass windows and the gardens with labyrinth are serene.

I had the privilege to be a docent and show people how beautiful St Pauls was. The interior was lovely before the bombing but even more so after the remodeling. Things were put aright and some of the things that had been "modernized" were taken back to their original states. Christmas Eve Mass there is extraordinary and a gift to those who worship that night. The music is touching and inspiring. The original altar of Carrera marble is worth the trip alone. Please enjoy.

From the outside, the building is unprepossessing and does not look like a cathedral (in the accepted sense) at all. But once you get inside, it is a marvel and has some beautiful stained glass.

As the Episcopal Cathedral for Oklahoma City, this is a small unassuming church, however it is one of the first churches of Oklahoma City and on the historical register. It is evident when you enter the sanctuary that this was a early Oklahoma City building with it's simplicity and small accommodations, but this does not take away from the beauty of the church. Further because of the direction of the implosion during the Oklahoma City bombing the church was spared extensive damage that other business in the downtown were not. Fortunately for those who visit the church the Tiffany windows are still intact and the church is still well cared for.

I went here last Friday with my boyfriend, the inside was closed due to remodeling but the outdoor courtyard was beautiful. I loved the stone maze and weeping willow tree. There were amazing mosaics throughout. It was nice, secluded and quiet. I enjoy the peaceful slow places like this.

Within walking distance of the city center, the grounds have a cloistered quietness about them inviting reflection.

We were there last weekend for a wedding. It is a beautiful place and I can see why people would want to go there to visit it. It is close to the OKC memorial museum and I would recommend stopping by to check it out. Very old and awesome!

Beautiful old church in the anglican style. Not overly big- just perfectly beautiful and simple, a time trip
