For more information, e-mail Kathy Enicks, program coordinator, or by telephone 484-433-4007. |
 SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS NEEDED
We're busy planning the fall schedule at Saint Paul's and need your help! The Children's and Youth Programs are growing at Saint Paul's. We are looking for a few committed teachers for Sunday morning Christian Formation classes. Please prayerfully consider how you can support our Christian Formation programs. If you are interested in teaching or in assisting Sunday School in any way, please contact Eleanor Smolen. |
Summer Parish Office Volunteers
Saint Paul's needs more volunteers (both women and men welcome!) to answer the telephone and greet those who come to the office at Saint Paul's during the summer weeks. There are a few openings in our weekly schedule, from either 9 AM - 12 noon, or from 12 noon until 3 PM It's a great way to get to know the Saint Paul's community. We schedule volunteers for only one month at a time, and so this need not be a long-term commitment on your part. Contact Mary Lou Harold or by phone at 706-737-3838 to learn more. |
