Parish Retreat

Each year, our parish embarks on a retreat to Shrine Mont, an Episcopal retreat center tucked in the Shenandoah Valley that is home to the Cathedral of the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia. Parishioners get to enjoy the natural beauty of rolling hills and mountains, and this tranquil setting provides a perfect backdrop to what the parish retreat is all about: growing in our relationships with each other and with the Creator. The retreat is an opportunity to connect across the generations. Childcare with age appropriate activities is provided as well as family time. 
This year's parish retreat will be held from May 31st-June 2nd, 2019. For more details, please email Minister for Faith Formation,  Keli Cooper. 
Peace,

Exciting Plans for Easter and Beyond!
    
Invite your friends and family to our Annual Easter Egg Hunt on the grounds of the Capitol. There is a basket in the Gathering Space that contains empty eggs to be filled. Everyone can help out by filling them with small candies and toys. No nuts, please. And this is a wonderful opportunity to greet our visitors who attend the Hunt.


Children's Lenten Calendars & Bulletins

There are calendars available for everyone - share them as well! And each Sunday, there will be a new Children's Lenten bulletins either in the bags hanging on the wooden stand leading into the Church or from an usher in the Narthex. 
What's Going on at St. Paul's 
for Holy Week & Easter?

There's a lot happening at St. Paul's at the close of this Lenten Season! From the beginning to the end of Holy Week, check out all the opportunities to join together in worship and observe the mystery of Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection. Whether you are most looking forward to a colorful festal day, or are looking for something quieter and more contemplative, we've got the service for you.
