The Basilica School of St. Paul is one of the many ministries of the Basilica of St. Paul Church…
Spirituality
At the Basilica School of St. Paul and in keeping with the traditional known advantages of Catholic education the environment is a result of the concept of the total education of the student.
Students are challenged to incorporate into their lives attitudes that will help them improve the world by sharing Gospel values and living Christ’s message of salvation. They grow to understand the roots of their faith and their responsibilities children of God. Students explore their faith primarily through their religion class, and secondly by the infusion of the religious values into their other subjects.
At the Basilica School of St. Paul we stress the value of self-discipline and commitment. Faculty and staff are role models who share their faith, their talents, and their time. While not all students who come to the Catholic Schools are Catholic, all share experiences of faith and values.
Community Service
Through the completion of community service in the form projects ant time commitment values which promote understanding and service to the elderly and the handicapped, the poor and the ill, are an important part of the Catholic School experience that students who are enrolled in the school are exposed to. As a faith community, we emphasize those values which encourage students to accept others rather than exclude them, to understand the difference between right and wrong, and to commit themselves to serve God by serving others.
The doors of the Basilica of Saint Paul stand open to welcome you.
The Basilica of St. Paul Church is the first Basilica that Pope Benedict XVI honored and only the 60th Church designated as a basilica in the United States.
The renaming of St Paul Catholic Church to “The Basilica of St Paul” marked the first basilica for the Central Florida Diocese of Orlando and only the second Basilica in Florida. The Basilica of St Augustine was named many years ago. Churches are selected as basilicas because of their historical significance and their liturgical life and example. This holy and prestigious honor is given to recognize the 125 years of parish community witness to faith, hope and charity, watchwords of St Paul himself.
