WORSHIP
Our 8 am service is up and running!
Are you usually an early riser? Are you interested in a more intimate and private worship service? Please consider attending the 8 am service on Sundays. There is plenty of space to social distance at this peaceful meditative service. Join us!
Sunday School Update
We invite all kids to join us each Sunday for Bold Transformational Faith Sunday School classes. We will also email the materials for those who choose to worship virtually. We hope that this new program inspires and enriches the faith life of your children. Please email Rev. Ellen if you have any questions.
Sunday School begins at 10:10 am. Laurie DeBiasse will lead the class this week. The lessons will be emailed to our virtual families every Monday. You can register your children online here: https://www.stpaulschatham.org/sunday-school-registration
Prayers
We ask your prayers this week for Amaryllis, Martha, Marcy, Norm, Ed, Kathy, Michael, the King family, the Kellogg family, Andy, Gloria, Beth, Pauline, Don, Sam, Mark, Marilyn, Sophia, John, Sarah, and Matt.
Please notify the office if you have any changes or additions to the Prayer List.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Coat Drive!
Simonfay Landscaping takes beautiful care of our Memorial Close, and also takes care of many refugees and homeless people. Currently, they will match any donations of coats, sleeping bags, and tents. For each of these items donated, they will purchase a new one also for refugees and homeless people. Beginning Sunday, please drop off any unused coats, sleeping bags and tents in the Outreach Alcove of the Narthex.
More College Care Packages!
Albie Ashbrook will be coordinating the collection, packing and sending of college care packages to St. Paul's students who are away from home. If you have a student that you think would appreciate a package in the mail, anything you would like to send to a specific student, or an item you would like to donate for each package, please contact Albie Ashbrook.
NEWS
Altar Flowers
At St. Paul's, Altar Flowers are often donated in memory of a loved one. Altar Flowers, however, may be donated for any reason--to the glory of God, in thanksgiving for a loved one's recovery, a new birth in the family, or anything you feel called to memorialize. For more information on supporting the Altar Flower ministry (which strives to be self-supporting) and donating flowers, please email the office.
