Harvest Wine Dinner and Auction, October 19, 2019 – Wow! What a great event! Approximately 115 people enjoyed a delicious 5-course dinner prepared by Brandon Hufnagel, chef of the Glen Rock Mill Inn. Each course had a wine paired to enhance the flavor of the food. There was a silent auction of donated items and a live auction to sell the paintings donated by Pastor Reep. The evening started out in the Good Shepherd Gathering Area with Hors d’ oeuvres, viewing of the paintings in the Sanctuary, and then a tour of the Food Pantry, and ending up in the Fellowship Hall for Soup, Salad, Entree, Dessert, Silent Auction, and Live Auction. The evening was a huge success. Those who were there left the event knowing of St. Paul’s Food Pantry ministry, the congregation’s outreach to the community, and knowing they all helped to support the Food Pantry renovations. Thank you to all that attended. It is our hope that everyone enjoyed the evening!

Second Sunday Sandwiches – October 13, 2019

The following pictures were taken at Acolyte Training in September and proved to be a delightful time as the children of the congregation prepared themselves for this important service. As they each take part in the Sunday liturgy, please remember to thank them for serving God and the congregation. Encouraging and supportive words go a long way in strengthening Christian faith.

Holy Saturday/Vigil of Easter 2019

The Vigil of Easter begins with a new fire. We gather at the Garden of Memory. From this place associated with death we begin the third portion of the Triduum. The Vigil of Easter is the first celebration of our Lord’s Resurrection. We move into the darkened church where we hear salvation history recounted through a series of readings from Holy Scripture. The sacrament of Holy Baptism is celebrated. Prayers are offered. We make the transition from darkness to light, from death to resurrection as the first hymn of Easter is sung. The Easter gospel is read, Holy Communion celebrated and we joyfully take our leave anticipating the full glorious celebration of Easter on Sunday morning after refreshments.
