As Jesus said: Love one another.Â

Faith in Action
August’s food shelf theme is POWDERED BEVERAGES: lemonade, kids’ fruit drinks, iced tea, and the like. The food shelf has seen a huge uptick in use, and our collections have not been as robust. Please add them to your shopping list whenever able, and place your items in the bins outside the Undercroft. Email Liz Gamble Taylor or call 612-889-5250 to assist with delivery.
p.s. General donations are always welcome – thank you!!Â
Saint Paul’s Little Library is perpetually popular! Children’s picture books and adult fiction are most needed; all donations can be placed in the bins outside the Undercroft. Your continued generosity helps make this outreach possible.
Episcopal Relief & Development accepts donations to aid those in need both at home and abroad. Click here to donate in a way meaningful to you.
Upcoming Events
