About St. Paul's Episcopal Church
-
St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Vernal, Ut is a historic church on Main Street. Completed in 1901 St. Paul's is build from locally quarried stone. The sanctuary seats 72 people and has beautiful acoustics. In the 1970's an addition was built onto the old church to allow for a bathroom, a sacristy, and an office.
In addition to the church, St. Paul's has a parish house that is now used by the church as a fellowship space and classrooms. The parish house was built in 1909 with the help from the Girl's Friendly Society. It was built as a boarding house for girls who would come in from the remote ranches in the area to attend school. It advertized as having hot, running water! The Parish House has also served as the town's hospital, and was later an apartment building. A Jubilee Grant from the Diocese of Utah was used to restore and update the building to it's current use.
