UPCOMING EVENTS

Optional Subhead

• Stewardship Season at St. Paul’s  Did you receive your 2017 Pledge Card in the mail?  Besides the pledge card to be filled out, it includes a self-addressed, stamped envelope for your use. We use these “Pledge Cards” to record this amount we hope to donate to the parish in 2017, then we return them into the Stewardship Committee who maintains records in confidence.  The Vestry basis our new year’s budgeting on the information received.  If a “pledger’s” circumstances change during the course of the year, their “pledges” may be lowered (or raised!) accordingly.
• Socks!  This fall, the youth group is collecting CLEAN NEW WARM men's socks for the homeless men who eat at the CHIPS Center on 4th Ave. We would like to get as many socks as possible in the next month, so that we can make a donation to them before the winter season. Please bring your socks on Sundays to Coffee Hour where we will have a collection box. If you have any questions, you can talk to Eoin Riley-Duffy or other member of the youth group.
• The Solemnity of All Saints’ will be celebrated next Sunday, November 6th. This is also the celebration at which our parish remembers the All Saints’ Feast in 1867 when the cornerstone of our present building was laid.  God Willing, a year from now, on All Saints’ Day, 2017, we will give thanks for 150 years of worship and service in this place.
