A note about our summer liturgies from Rev. Ramona…
Holy Eucharist will be celebrated at the 10:00AM liturgy, in person and via Zoom; login instructions above. The bulletin and day’s lectionary are available to view or download. Join us for Coffee Hour snacks and fellowship immediately following.
The loose plate collection on third Sundays goes into the Rector’s discretionary account. These funds are used to assist people in need, and for unexpected expenses not covered in the budget.
Pastoral visits with Communion: If your health or mobility renders you unable to attend on Sundays and you wish Rev. Ramona to bring Holy Communion to your home, please email her (or call/text at 612-201-6634).

A Message from Our Rector
Summer on the Lake 2024
A note about our summer liturgies from Rev. Ramona…
Saint Paul’s continues to offer beautiful and meaningful Sunday morning worship all summer long, right up to fall’s Homecoming Sunday. Join us in person, bring a family member or friend,
or join us online from where you are!
We will be using three different liturgy sources over the summer:
- June 2-30: Isle of Iona (Celtic)
- July 7 – August 4: Church of England (Anglican)
- August 11 – September 8: Book of Common Prayer (TEC)
As part of our ongoing commitment to creation care and being good stewards of the environment, we ask that you return your bulletin to an usher after worship ends, as we will
reuse them throughout each five-week immersion. And as always, please stay and join us for coffee hour in the Undercroft following each service: tasty treats, a bit of jigsaw, and good fellowship!
