Welcome to the Paulist Center Community of Boston
As our name suggests, we are affiliated with the Paulist Fathers from whom our ordained ministerial staff are drawn. The Paulist Center was founded in 1945.
The Chapel at the Paulist Center is the heart of our liturgical life. It is a simple space which was renovated during the summer of 2001 to include access to the sanctuary for the physically disabled. The renovations also improved the sight lines and visibility of the sanctuary while creating a warm, welcoming, and communal space.
Our ministries (view videos) are strongly centered
in Social Justice, music and
many other groups whichdraw on the talents of both the ordained and lay ministers.
