New Group!
Please join four of us in a new Home Prayer Group, meeting January 19 which will start by meeting biweekly from 10-11:30 on Thursday morning at a member’s home. We will be using a book by Joan Chittister, “The Breath of the Soul”, reflections on prayer. Call Betty Hooper 324-3148 or Donna Gushue 328-3692 for more information.
Each of us are at a different stage of our spiritual journey. As stated in one of St. Paul’s Core Values: “We believe that prayer is a life giving communication to and from God which strengthens our relationship with Him. We believe in integrating Christ centered prayer into all aspects of our life and worship.”
Dear St. Paul’s family,
For your support and participation in all of our events, for your generous
financial contributions, and for your spiritual encouragement throughout this
anniversary year — we give you our heartfelt thanks.
