Announcements This Week!

Important things are happening this week at St. Paul! Please read below to see if you are available to volunteer for SafeHouse THIS SATURDAY!

More Details:
Volunteers (8 of them) are needed to help serve lunch to those at Rosehill/SafeHouse ministry on Saturday, October 2nd, starting at 11:30 a.m. Joe Morrow can answer your questions and his contact info is in your bulletin. To volunteer, you can call the church office!
If you canā€™t help in October, there will be opportunities at both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Stephanie Woods, our new Childrenā€™s Director, will start on October 1st but weā€™ve set aside the SS hour on October 17th for all to come meet her! Please see the schedule (adults at 10:00, youth and older elementary at 10:15 and early elementary/preschool at 10:30) in your bulletin.

If you havenā€™t sent in your ā€œburning questionsā€, please do so ASAP. I always remember what my Daddy told me when I was a child ā€“ ā€œthere are no dumb questions. The only dumb one is the one you didnā€™t ask.ā€

Next Sunday, October 3rd will be a bit busy!
American Red Cross Blood Drive in the morning from 8:00 a.m. ā€“ 12:30 p.m. in the youth building. You may register to give the gift of life by reaching out to either Ken Chung or Kathy Hollon.
Blessing of the Animals in the afternoon at 5:00 p.m., in the Quad! Please bring your furry (or feathered or scaly) family members to not only receive a blessing but also get their picture made for the ā€œbest in showā€ contest, where ā€œbestā€ can mean many different categories! Come join in the fun!
