If anyone has some of the portable lights for worksites that they would be willing to bring to illuminate trick or treat please let the office know.

 

We will be hosting two informational forums in early November.  On Wednesday, November 2, the topic will be eldercare, and on Wednesday, November 9, the topic will be bullying.  Both forums begin at 7 p.m., and are expected to run about 2 hours.  Bring your questions!

We will have a Fall Work Day on Saturday November 5 from 9 to 2  with lunch provided.  There are lots of little projects that need to be done around the church - both inside and outside.  Come and help and have some fun.  Many hands make light work and there are projects for all ages and all levels of skill and physical ability. 

All Saints' Day will be celebrated on November 6.  A part of the All Saints' service is remembering those who have died and are now a part of the community of Saints in heaven.  If you have someone you would like to have remembered during the service please send the name to Liz in the office - paulspals@gmail.com or 632-8221 - by November 3.

One of the customs at St. Paul's is that on the day that we change the clocks, St. Paul's collects your spare change and gives it to a program or organization that is making a change in lives.

 

This fall the Day of Change collection will be going to the scholarship funds of the youth programs of the Diocese.  So, on November 6 please bring your change to church and put it in the basket - and remember a $10 bill is change for a $20.

On November 6 at the 10 o'clock service we will be commissioning our new acolytes and celebrating the ministry of our acolytes.  All acolytes should plan on attending if possible.

The Altar Guild is in need of (clean & empty) coffee cans and half-gallon jugs.  These are used to transport the Altar flowers to our shut-ins after the Sunday services, and are an on-going need.  Thank you!

Delta Sonic car wash tickets are available once again from this coming Sunday, through the end of December.  At $12 for a Super Wash (including a 5-day guarantee for a rewash), they make a great gift.  See Marje Hagberg to puchase.

Be sure to check out the November Bell for details of our annual Wreath and Centerpiece Sale!
