Paternoster Press is a British Christian publishing house which was founded by Howard Mudditt in 1936. Mudditt was a Bank of England clerk who decided to move into publishing after seeing the many publishers based on London's Paternoster Row during his lunch hours; the firm was named after the street, rather than being due to any Catholic connections.

Paternoster's early lists were theological, and the firm eventually relocated to Exeter. In 1992 it was purchased by the Christian book distributor Send the Light (Authentic Media division), and it is now based in Milton Keynes and Carlisle. Paternoster?s imprints include Regnum (an academic list) and Rutherford House (a popular historical list); it also publishes books with specific imprints for organisations such as WEF (World Evangelisation Fellowship), YWAM (Youth with a Mission) and Spring Harvest.
