Our fall worship and education schedule kicks off one month from today (Sunday, September 9th). The schedule remains the same as last fall with the exception of the youth education program. Read the details here.
Please mark your calendar's for Sunday, September 2nd. On this Sunday during the 10:30am service we will liturgically give thanks for Pam's many years as Director of Youth Ministries and bless her as she begins her discernment process to the priesthood. A reception honoring Pam will follow the service. Also, we are accepting contributions towards a gift for Pam. After so many years of lost spousal time on weekends due to the demands of her position, we would like to provide Pam and Mark Hatley a getaway weekend vacation. If you would like to contribute, please make checks payable to "Saint Patrick's" and note "Pam Hatley Gift Fund" on the memo line. You may submit these clearly marked contributions in the lose plate offering or directly to the church office.
