Hello –
1. Jay’s Funeral is this Saturday, the 10th, at 11am. Katie has requested that you wear a Hawaiian shirt. Lunch and a party to follow in Duncan Hall.
2. Ash Wednesday is this coming Wednesday, the 14th. Services are at 7:30am, Noon and 6:30pm. It’s also Valentine’s Day, so here’s a poem:
Roses are Red, Violets are blue
Lent is beginning
No chocolate for you! : )
3. We host the PrayWorshipServe Retreat starting on Thursday, February 22nd. As a member of St. Paul’s you are invited to participate for free in one of two ways:
A. You can join half a dozen other parishioners and become one of about 40 Participants in the Retreat. The only requirement is that you at least participate from 9am to 3pm on both Friday and Saturday, and also Sunday morning starting at 9am. Email me if you wish to participate at c.h.mrtn@gmail.com.
B. You can volunteer for any of a number of roles including welcoming people, driving folks, cooking, serving food and so on. If you do, you are invited to come to the debut of my performance piece, Pelican, at 4:45pm on Saturday, and then stay afterwards for a reception and feast cooked by our beloved Chef Cynthia. Email Judy at JLRowcliffe@comcast.net.
These are rich days at St. Paul’s!
