Stewardship

From the Rector


There is tremendous need in both on the east coast of the United States and in Haiti for hurricane relief efforts. If you would like to make a gift to help in this effort we are accepting gifts to Episcopal Relief and Development for this purpose. Episcopal Relief and Development distributes 100% of its donations to relieve suffering and want in the designated areas. Your generous gift will go a long way to help. Please make checks payable to Saint Paul's Church for ERD and your gift will be sent with others to support this effort. If you would like to have the opportunity to make your gift via credit card or online following the service, someone will be in the Narthex to help you.

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.
