The Master's Table Soup Kitchen
|
The Saint Paul's team prepares lunch at the Master's Table Soup Kitchen every other month. This is a great opportunity to get to know other parishioners while chopping, stirring, and slicing; but more importantly, it's a tangible way to live out the gospel message.
Curious? Watch this short video from Golden Harvest to see what goes on at the kitchen.
If this looks like a rewarding experience, the soup kitchen team invites you to join them tomorrow morning. It's not too late to contact Marilyn to serve tomorrow.
The Master's Table Soup Kitchen located at 702 Fenwick Street will be staffed and sponsored by Saint Paul's Church volunteers Saturday, February 24, 9 - 10:45
AM.
Contact Marilyn Grau for more information.

The clergy will guide conversations during the formation hour Sundays (9:30 AM) and Wednesdays (noon to one) in Tyler Hall. The clergy also will lead Noonday Prayers in the Chapel each Wednesday at 11:45 AM.
Whether or not you attend these holy conversations, please participate by reading this wonderful book. 30 copies of
The Dream of God
will be available in the narthex and parish office or
order here
. Please give what you can afford: $5 - $20 by check-memo: LENTEN BOOK.

 SPARK -- Ages 8-10 or grades 3-5
Location: Room #1, Children's Ministries Center
Our older children will again immerse themselves in SPARK, where they will work with the same themes and Scripture that we all encounter in common worship. Every lesson follows a four-part pattern: Gather, Open the Bible, Activate Faith, and Send. Week after week, the children and their leaders gather together, explore the Scriptures, enjoy one another's company, pray, and discover God's presence in their midst. |
 Godly Play -- Ages 4-7
Location: Room #2 Children's Ministry Center
ALL children inherently know God, but it is up to us to give them the language of the Christian faith so they can grow to make meaning of our faith in their own lives. Godly Play is a profound method rooted in Montessori principles that forms child spirituality by attending to their natural gifts for wonder and discovery. |
