The Eucharist will be celebrated at 10:00AM from the pews and via Zoom(login instructions above). The bulletin may be viewed or downloaded here. Flowers on the retable are given to the glory of God and in gratitude for the generosity and kindness of Saint Paul’s parishioners by Laurie Larsen.

Join us for Coffee Hour snacks, puzzling, and fellowship in the Undercroft immediately following the morning’s service. Stay after Coffee Hour, when parishioner Gene Tierney will debut his new video, Humanorama. A short discussion follows the video.

Special message: Given the federal shut down, SNAP benefits (food stamps) are not available for those who rely on the program. Our food shelf partners–Joyce Uptown and Saint Nicholas–are sorely in need of items to meet this increased demand for basics. This Sunday, please consider donating canned meats, canned fruits, mayonnaise, sugar, cooking oil, and coffee. Thank you for your generosity!

Pastoral Care

The Pastoral Care Team has a request for all: as we practice our social distancing, do not let that extend to social isolation. Take a few minutes every day to call someone to see how they are doing – to reach out and say a prayer with them and/or find out if they need anything. One of the things that is so important right now is to connect with our community. If there are those who need help, please let us know and we will figure out how to assist; if you are that person, please reach out to Deacon Janet or Pat Trumbull. As Jesus said: Love one another.
