Communication Survey Results
|
|
Thank you to all who completed a Parish Communication Survey back in the summer!
The Leadership Focus Group and Vestry were given an analysis of these surveys to understand how we communicate with our parishioners and to plan any needed improvements.
The Leadership Focus Group and the Vestry wish to thank Patt Nuessle for his invaluable work in formulating and analyzing the survey.

| We have a large collection of party platters, trays, and dishes in the Tyler Hall Kitchen left after various church functions. Please stop by this Sunday to claim any of your items from the counter. Building & Grounds is beginning the process of cleaning, organizing, and inventorying this space in preparation for future updates. |

Evensong
Sunday, November 6, 5:30
PM, Nave
Evensong is the ancient service of Vespers and continues to be sung daily in cathedrals throughout the world. The Saint Paul's Choir sings Evensong twice during the year, in the fall and in the spring. Mark Dickens will be the guest organist and the service will include the premiere of the Preces and Responses composed by Heard Robertson, former Head Boy of the Canterbury Choir, now a dad with four children. Heard's brother, Jonathan, will be the cantor. Other music is by Gerre Hancock, John Rutter, and Edward Bairstow. A reception hosted by the parishioners of Saint Paul's Church follows in Tyler Hall. This is a great occasion to invite friends to visit Saint Paul's.

Coats for Kids at Craig
Beginning this Sunday
Fall is here. These cool days and clear, chilly nights are great when you have a good coat or jacket. But it's hard to concentrate on school if you are shivering with cold. Many kids at Craig-Houghton Elementary School are facing just that situation as we head toward winter. We need donations of boys' and girls' coats and jackets from children's size 6 through adult extra-large. New and gently used light jackets and heavier coats are both needed, along with hats, gloves, and scarves. Donation boxes are located in the narthex and in Tyler Hall. If you would questions or would like more information about our programs at Craig-Houghton Elementary
contact Kathy Enicks.
