Our St. Paul logo was designed by fellow parishioner Lori Brechtel, a graphic designer. Lori put great thought and detail into its design. She began by seeking out a symbol of our church that would be readily identifiable to all of our members - the circular, quartered round window on our building.
The yellow, starbust portion represents the light of Christ that blinded Paul, and that light which we show to each other among our congregation, and others. it is "bursting" from the confines of our own church and radiating into the world.
Born on September 27, 1696, in Marianella, near Naples, Italy, St. Alphonsus was the eldest of seven children. He was baptized two days after his birth with the name Alphonsus Mary Anthony John Cosmas Damian Michael Gaspard de’ Liguori.
He was a child prodigy who excelled in everything he did. He learned to ride and fence at an early age, and also had a keen interest in music and art. He composed his first musical piece at the age of nine and painted several portraits of his family members. He also had a great love for learning and studied languages, literature, philosophy, and theology.
He entered the University of Naples at the age of 12 and graduated with doctorates in civil and canon law at the age of 16. He then began to practice law at the Neapolitan courts under the guidance of his father, who wanted him to have a successful career and marry into a wealthy family.
