St. Paul by Giovanni Savoldo

The mission of St. Paul Church is to love God with all our hearts, minds and souls and to love and serve our neighbors. In common with all Christians,we have complete dependence on Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, a biblical basis for our faith and life, and a need to share that faith and serve the needs of all God's children in the glory of God.




St. Paul Church was established as early as 1854 and a building built around 1857 as Trundle’s Crossroads Methodist Church. In 1980 the congregation reorganized as Seymour United Methodist Church and sold the building to the Church of Christ. The Seymour Church of Christ closed their church and sold the building to the congregation of St. Paul Church in 1995. In 2005, the remaining members of St. Paul approached the Episcopal Diocese of East Tennessee about beginning an Episcopal Church at St. Paul. The first service, The Holy Eucharist, was held on August 7, 2005 at 4 PM. Services continued weekly at 6 PM and subsequently at 10:30 AM. On Sunday October 30th, The Rt. Rev. Charles vonRosenberg celebrated The Holy Eucharist and announced the formation of an Episcopal Worshiping Community at St. Paul Church serving Seymour and South Knoxville, Tennessee and surrounding communities. We believe that our Church has unique contributions to make to the area.
