Welcome to St Paul's Church, Milagiriya.
St Paul's Church Milagiriya is an Anglican Church that belongs to Diocese of Colombo. St Paul's is located in Bambalapitiya (Colombo 04) a suburb of Colombo, Sri Lanka. The church was established over 130 years ago and comprises a worshiping community which includes people from different walks of life. Through the practice of true Christian values, we provide spiritual guidance for all members who wish to be a part of our church family.
The church was first built by the Portuguese as a Roman Catholic place of worship and was known as Nossa Senhora dos Milagres (Our Lady of Miracles). Milagiriya is the ‘Sinhalise’ name for the Portuguese word "Milagres", meaning miracles. There was a well near the original church and during the Portuguese era, Portuguese people used to flock here as it was reputed to have miraculous properties. The sick were brought to the church from all over the island to drink the water from the well.
