 Master's Table Soup Kitchen
Saturday, February 25, 8:15 AM - 10:30 PM
The Master's Table Soup Kitchen at 702 Fenwick Street will be staffed and sponsored by Saint Paul's Church volunteers Saturday, February 25. The Prep Team works from 8:15 - 10:30
AM. This is a great opportunity to get to know other parishioners while chopping, stirring, and preparing lunch.
Please note a change for this ministry
in 2017. Because this is an extremely gratifying experience, the Soup Kitchen has more servers than they need. Therefore, the Saint Paul's team will prepare lunch only, to give other groups an opportunity to serve. Since persons under age 18 are not allowed to work in the kitchen, this opportunity will now be limited to adults only.
Contact Marilyn Grau for more information or to volunteer.

ADULTS
Faith, Church, and the Episcopal Way: Adult Formation Offering
On Sunday, March 5, 9:30
AM, in the Berlin Room, we will begin an adult opportunity to explore our personal faith within the context of the Church and in what John Westerhoff calls the "peculiar way" of the Episcopal tradition. This class will help us more fully to understand our own faith as it intersects with the professed faith and traditions of the Episcopal Church. We will also explore the traditional Rite of Confirmation and its role in our lives and that of the Church. For those new to the Episcopal tradition and for those who have been a part for years, this class will help expand and deepen our connectedness. On June 25 our Bishop will be at Saint Paul's for his annual visit. At the 11
AM service that day the Bishop will offer the opportunity, to those who would like, to make or renew their adult profession of faith. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact Fr. Muir or Fr. Jenkins. We look forward to this opportunity to learn and grow together.
YOUTH
Youth Formation for the Sacramental Rite of Confirmation will begin Sunday, March 5. This is an exciting opportunity for young people that have completed the 9th grade to deepen their spiritual formation and further engage with the rich tradition of the Episcopal Church. The sessions led by Ranie Neislar, will be held in the Rector's Office from 9:30 to 10:30
AM. Bishop Benhase will visit the parish for confirmation on June 25.
