Ash Wednesday Senior Luncheon – On February 22 after the morning Ash Wednesday Service, the Witness Committee prepared lunch for our seniors.  It was well attended and enjoyed by those attending.  It was a great opportunity for them to socialize and have lunch together.  No one went away hungry!

On February 10, the Witness Committee had a Valentine’s Social for young adults.  The young parents that were there had an opportunity to enjoy a four course dinner, prepared in house, while their children were being taken care at another location in the church with lots of sitters and supervision.  It was a great opportunity for new couples to meet other young couples within the church.  It was a lovely evening.

St. Paul’s Young Artist in Production of a Nativity Play based on an Old English Traditional Carol “On Christmas Day in the Morning”– Mary and Joseph are  on their journey to Bethlehem in search of a place of shelter to rest and so that Mary might deliver her baby and they encounter the following animals on their way:  sparrows, crows, pigs, minnows, drakes, sheep and cows.  The animals are unable to help them find a place to stay.  It all ends with the children singing “A Winter Night” and the news that Christ is born.  We are blessed with an incredibly talented group of children and a gifted director for our children’s choirs.
