JAZZ@MASS IS THIS SUNDAY, AUGUST 26th, 10:00 am

The second of our two summer Jazz@Mass services is this Sunday.  This has become an annual favorite both with parishioners and in the neighborhood, so please plan to join us.  Parishioner Willie Martinez is again coordinating the musicians for the popular and well-attended event.

 

NEW EXPANDED OPEN DOOR SCHEDULE:  VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Please consider volunteering to sit in the church during one of the Open Door times.  For more information, please contact Sandy Miller, and she will be glad to tell you inspirational stories from the Open Door program and sign you up.  It’s a simple and easy way to minister to the Carroll Gardens neighborhood.

 

The new Open Door times are Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm. 
 

BOILER/WATER METER PROJECT REPORT

The Boiler/Water Meter Project is moving along.  Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far.  If you have not given to this project yet, please consider it prayerfully.  St. Paul’s belongs to everyone, and we need everyone’s help!  More information about the specifics of the projects are available on the back table.  The total cost of the project is $30,000.  We need to raise $15, 000, which will then be matched by two generous St. Paul’s families.

PRAYERS FOR ST. PAUL’S DURING THE TRANSITION AND RECTOR SEARCH

As you read the Eblast each week, it is a good opportunity to take 30 seconds and offer a prayer for St. Paul’s during its transition and for the members of the Search Committee.  Prayers to that effect will be included each week in the Eblast.

For St. Paul’s:  Almighty and everliving God, Ruler of all things in heaven and earth, hear our prayers for this parish family.  Strengthen the faithful, arouse the careless, and restore the penitent.  Grant us all things necessary for our common life, and bring us all to be of one heart and mind with your holy Church: through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

For the Search Committee:  Direct the Search Committee, O Lord, in all their doings with thy most gracious favor, and further them with thy continual help; that in all their works begun, continued,, and ended in thee, they may glorify thy Holy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
