NEWS OF INTEREST AND UPCOMING EVENTS
HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW YOUR CHURCH? No, this is not a theology quiz. This is a get to know your Church building question. On July 10 and 24 you are invited to take a guided tour of the lower (Parish Hall) level and upper floors of St. Paul's. You will learn where the "secret" blower room is located (the acolytes favorite spot) our historian's hideout, and the new family room as well as many class, meeting and storage rooms. Upstairs you will find more classrooms, game rooms, and did know that we have a crying room with a beautiful view of the Sanctuary? Also, our Minister of Music has given us permission to tour his special room upstairs. We will meet in room 116 after the 9:00 service. 11:00 folks are invited to come early, grab a cup of coffee and join us. Tour guides will be Kati Arp, Sue Dauer and Hazel Patton. RECTOR PORTRAIT COLLECTION From the time St. Paul's Episcopal Church at Liberty and Myers streets (the third church building in parish history) was opened in 1953, the congregation has maintained a tradition of commissioning formal likenesses of its rectors. The portraits have been contributed by donors for the most part. Since 2009, the Art and Architecture Committee has overseen arrangements for the portraits. This year, in honor of Fr. James Young's May 18 installation as 23rd Rector of St. Paul's, a framed photograph of Fr. Jim donated by Stefani Photography Studio was unveiled at the pre-installation dinner with the announcement that it would be displayed in the narthex as authorized by the Parish Life Commission and the Junior Warden. The Art and Architecture Committee, headed by Nancy Lindburg, is developing a plan for the seven large-scale framed portraits in the church archive. In the weeks ahead, the committee will weigh options for displaying the portraits, either as a permanent grouping or on a rotational basis. Small-scale portraits of ten rectors of St. Paul's, as many images as could be found of those who served before the time of the Rev George H. Swift (founder of third St. Paul's Church), were included as illustrations in the sesquicentennial parish history of 2003. SUMMER EBOARD We will be sending out weekly eboards in the summer, but due to staff vacations, no programs taking place, etc. we may not have as many articles or updates. We will resume a full scale eboard again in the fall. If you have any articles or updates to share please submit to Kati at ktarp2@gmail.com. |
STAFF PROGRAMS AND MINISTRIES
CHI YO 2011
Members and friends of St. Paul's are invited to participate in the
annual outreach fundraising project call "Chi Yo." For 31 years St. Paul's has been making a Vietnamese spring roll from scratch. This spring roll called "Chi Yo" is sold along with soft drinks at the Salem Art Fair. Proceeds are given to the "Helping Hands" ministry in Salem and for music scholarships at St. Paul's. We need over 200 volunteers. Would you please help us? Duties include kitchen help, rolling of the spring roll, frying, running the product and selling. Shifts are generally three to four hours in the morning, early afternoon and late afternoon. The dates are July 15, 16, and 17. To volunteer, please call Paul Klemme at the church 503-362-3661 ext. 310 any time or send him a note on email halepk@frontier.com.
Many thanks,

YOUTH CORNER I would like to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to the adults who helped chaperone the high school mission trip. If it were not for Sue Dauer, Scott Nielson, Fr.
