Annual Pauli Murray Commemoration

Join with others in Durham to celebrate the life and legacy of Pauli Murray--historian, attorney, poet, activist, teacher and first African American woman ordained as an Episcopal priest on Thursday, July 7th

at 7:00 p.m. The service will be held at St. Titus' Episcopal Church (400 Moline St., Durham).

The Rev. Dr. Murray worked throughout her life to address injustice, to give voice to the unheard, to educate, and to promote reconciliation between races and economic classes. She worshiped and was confirmed at St. Titus' in Durham.

Music will be provided by the Pauli Murray Celebration Choir. Anyone interested in singing with this choir should contact the director, Brad Croushorn (bradcroushorn@gmail.com).

Emergency Contact Information

As part of St. Philip's emergency preparedness plan we are asking parishioners to submit your emergency contact information to the parish office (name and phone numbers). It will be entered into your confidential profile in our database and will not be published or given out.

Please contact Janice Glasser with your information (janice@stphilipsdurham.org; 919-682-5708).
