Please let us know! When you or someone you love is unable to come to church, church can come to you. We have trained commun-ion ministers and of course a pastor who are glad to share the grace of God’s meal. But we don’t know unless we’re told – so please contact the church office ([email protected], 365-7064) or Pr. Lucy ([email protected]) to request a visit.

MESSAGE FROM PASTOR LUCY — We had an amazing Stewardship Meeting in May. Now, I imagine many of you aren’t ter-ribly jealous that you weren’t invited. After all, most of us have been well trained that “Stewardship” is just church-speak for “Fundraising” – and most people don’t relish the job of having to ask
people for their money! But let me tell you, the energy and excitement around stewardship at this meeting had very little to do with fundraising – or even about how we could get people to do more, give more. Instead it was all about what we, as a St. Paul congregation, can do together for one another and our community – and about how much people already love doing those things! So what do we mean by “Stewardship” if we don’t mean “Fundraising”? Well, we mean being a community of people who are building our “eulogy virtues” together. David Brooks, the New York Times columnist, wrote a few years ago about the differences between “resumé virtues” and “eulogy virtues”. The former are the things the world trains us for from our school days onward: to be good students, good athletes, earn awards and accolades that will advance our careers and bank accounts. But the latter, “eulogy virtues”, are the things people talk about when we’re not around – and, they are the things almost every human heart longs for: to be kind, brave, generous, faithful, and buoyed by a life of love. When we say we want to grow our “Stewardship” as a congregation, what we mean is we want to continue to be more and more a group of peo-ple that others look at and think, “Wow, those folks are so loving! I bet they could help me be more like that too…” We want to have FUN doing all the good and generous things we can imagine – and always be thinking of new ones. We want to have a reputation for catching people doing great things – especially the little behind-the-scenes great things – and saying “thank you!” We want to keep telling the stories of the over-flowing abundant things we are seeing God do – at Soup Lunch, and Lyd-ia’s Closet; as we hand out quilts; in our Sunday School kids and seeing their gifts blossom; through our amazing youth…. the list goes on, and on, and on! Sure, money is a part of that – but it’s really not the biggest or most im-portant part. YOU – and the folks sitting around you on Sunday – are the
biggest and most important part. And the wonderful paradoxical Christian truth is – the more we give away, even our very selves, the more we find the true self God created us to be. You know the joy of those moments when you know you’ve been kind, generous, brave, loving – because that is when we’re being closest to who God creat-ed us to be. We can do more and more of that together! God’s gifts are abundantly overflow-ing here at St. Paul – and I believe God’s only getting started!
THANK YOU! The month of May was filled with celebrations & fun events! And some THANK YOUs are in order!
❖ Thank you to Ken & Marilyn Harris and Hayden Murry for be-ing our voting members at Synod Assembly!
❖ Thank you to all who made the celebration of my 1 year anniver-sary at St. Paul special - including Carol MacKechnie for the beau-tiful altar flowers and the Pann's for a yummy cake!

One year into being your pastor, St. Paul, and what I most want you to know is this: THANK YOU. I am so grateful and blessed to walk alongside you! -- Pr. Lucy
The one who sows sparingly will
also reap sparingly, and the one
who sows bountifully will also
reap bountifully… God is able to
provide you with every blessing
in abundance, so that by always
having enough of everything,
you may share abundantly in
every good work… You will be
enriched in every way for
your great generosity! 2 Corinthians 9:6,8,11
