I give of myself to Saint Paul's Because...
|
Describing a religious service held on HMS Prince of Wales when President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill met for the first time as the leaders of the free world, Jon Meacham has written: "the service ...was working a kind of magic, which is one of the points of liturgy and theater: to use the dramatic to convince people of a reality they cannot see."
This magnificent church, in its historic setting, the human effort that is so evident here, the continuity of this place of worship for many generations and the certain faith that worship will continue here, convince me of a reality that I cannot see. Not just preserving and protecting the place but the mission of carrying forward the traditions of thoughtful preaching, dignified worship, fine music, and civic involvement for generations yet unborn - that is why I give to Saint Paul's and have included Saint Paul's in my estate plan.
- Leslie Lambert
