Please join us for our monthly brunch. In August, we will be going to Max's Positive Vibe Cafe which is just south of the river! This is a very awesome restaurant, because they are "s o much more than 'just another restaurant,' Positive Vibe Cafe provides training in the food service industry for people with disabilities and helps our graduates obtain employment." 

Please let Keli know if you plan to attend by that Sunday morning (August 18th) so she can save enough seats for everyone!

Education for Ministry (EfM)
relaunching at St. Paul's!
Registration will be in August.

Church-goers today are invited to interpret the richness of the church's faith in a complex and confusing world. A theological education supports our faith and also teaches us to express that faith in day-to-day events. Such opportunity opens the door to a world of ministry. 

The Education for Ministry (EfM) program, administered by The University of the South/Sewanee, provides lay ministers with such an education. St. Paul's will be launching an EfM group to run mid September 2019 to early June 2020. 

To learn more about this exciting opportunity, please check out our web event here!
