Opening our Prayer Book - Adult Christian Formation, 

Sunday, 9:30-10:30 AM, Berlin Room, Clergy led 

THIS SUNDAY, we have looked at many of the prayer resources and contents within the BCP, but now we will shift to a more practical approach. We will practice finding the prayers you need to connect with your loved experiences, praying with the book, as well as next steps. Lastly, we will talk about when an in depth presentation will be offered about our "principal act of worship," which is The Holy Eucharist. See you this Sunday!

ALL ARE INVITED to participate. No prior attendance is necessary to participate and benefit from these last three meetings before the next round of adult formation begins on August 19th.

August 19, 2-7 PM

Saint Paul's celebrates summertime with an old fashioned church picnic at Camp Gravatt and the whole parish family is invited. Set aside Sunday 19 August beginning at 2 PM with swimming and water play for young (and old!). Bring your swimsuits, towels, and your favorite beverages. Non-swimming older folks come sit under the trees and sip your mint juleps (bring your own mix!) and enjoy a picnic supper (provided by our own Saint Paul's cooks) at 6 PM. Need a ride or would like to carpool? Please email Todd Shafer. Explore Camp Gravatt online at www.campgravatt.org. Come celebrate summer with your parish family! 

If you have not done so, please RSVP to Todd Shafer.

In 2018 we celebrate the 100 ^th anniversary of our present building. To prepare ourselves for our "contemporary and forward moving" mission we have work to do. As we seek to serve the work of the Gospel there are improvements we need to make to bring our "old and beautiful" space up to contemporary standards.

 

As Saint Paul's Church rose from the ashes of the 1916 fire we now build on that foundation to be ready for the new life that is before us.

 

All parishioners and friends of Saint Paul's Church are invited to an open house with heavy hors d'oeuvres  and refreshments and opportunity to learn more about what lies before us on Thursday, September 6 at 6:00 p.m. The event will begin in the River Room and continue throughout all our buildings and grounds.

 

Plan to be here!
