From the Rector
In the weeks and months to come your Stewardship Committee is moving toward a program of year-round stewardship. Don't worry, we won't be talking about money nonstop, but we will be lifting up and giving thanks for the stewardship of our time, talents and treasures.

You will have noticed that in the Prayers of the People we are praying for those groups and individuals at Saint Paul's who offer of themselves to the work and mission of the parish. We would like to now reach out to you. Stewardship is not simply the work of a small committee trying to raise money for the work of the parish. Stewardship is the work and responsibility of all who call Saint Paul's their church home.
In your Sunday bulletin, and shortly online and on our mobile app, you will find a short questionnaire. There is one simple question: "I/We give of ourselves, our time talent and treasure to Saint Paul's because.....". Answers to this question will help all of us understand better the many and varied ways we are connected to one another and to the life and ministry of Jesus Christ through this wonderful parish.

Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughtful response.
