Please consider supporting the Diocesan Harvest for Hospitality Campaign.  The campaign ends this Sunday, January 25th. Each family of the parish is being asked to prayerfully consider contributing $50.00 to the campaign.  Consider this amount a guideline.  Contributions of more or less are most welcome and will greatly assist the diocese in ministering to the underserved population of migrant farmworkers in our state.  Checks may be made payable to Saint Patrick's and placed in the Sunday morning offering plate or mailed to the church office.  Be sure to include "Harvest for Hospitality" in the memo line.  For more information on the campaign, please click here to visit the homepage of our website which has posted a couple of informative videos. Also, please consider exploring the diocesan website by clicking here for detailed information.

 Adult Lenten Study: Embracing An Alternative Orthodoxy. Especially with a new pope who takes his name after Saint Francis of Assisi, there is a renewed interest in Franciscan spirituality. Based on video teachings by acclaimed author Fr. Richard Rohr, and with discussion facilitated by our Rector, we will explore what makes Franciscan spirituality so unique and special. Participants should be prepared to have some traditional religious ideas stretched, and may find such stretching unsettling. With this said, however, Lent is the perfect time for stretching our religious imaginations and thereby receiving the reluctant growth that accompanies such endeavors. The offering will begin on Sunday, February 23rd and continue meeting weekly for a total of five classes, the last class being held Sunday, March 23rd. Participants need not attend each class; however, the more one attends, the fuller the learning experience. Each gathering will begin following the 10:30 a.m. service (approximately 11:45 am) and will last one hour. No registration needed. 

Volunteers are needed to help our Children's Ministries. A new sign up genius for Children's Chapel and Nursery volunteers is now on the church website. Please consider donating your time to Saint Patrick's Children's formation. The more participants, the less often everyone needs to volunteer. 

 Children in kindergarten through grade 5 are welcomed to participate in Shamrocks, our Saint Patrick's children's choir.

The kids can sing with their friends while the parents enjoy fellowship in the Narthex Coffee Hour.
