The committee records include material from the congregation’s Women’s Society of Christian Service and United Methodist Women.

The historical records include church histories, bulletins, directories, photographs, and printed items. Photographic slides (1967-1986) appear to have been compiled for a church history celebration in 1987.

The electronic records were originally stored on a Toshiba external hard drive, which is included with the collection. After surveying these records, the most useful ones created by the Saint Paul's congregation have been transferred to the archives' network-attached storage. These electronic records include membership records, administrative records, committee records, bulletins, and photographs.

The audiovisual material include compact disc recordings of worship services. Also included are videocassettes of church events.

Most scrapbooks document the general activities of the congregation. These include church bulletins, photographs, architectural drawings, and Sunday school records. The scrapbook from 1965-1991 also includes material from Rayne Memorial United Methodist Church (New Orleans, La.). Additional scrapbooks document the congregation’s United Methodist Women.
