Proud grandfather Leon Hastings gifted a beautiful new rocking chair at the shower to Charlie and Amanda Hastings for their new baby boy!

The Hastings expressed their thanks to everyone for a wonderful Baby Shower on September 19th. We are excited and ready to welcome Baby Thomas to our St. Paul's family in early November!

Thank you to everyone for the teamwork in offering a very enjoyable first Instructed Eucharist together - it was my first as a priest, and I found it deeply meaningful to hear the lay servers speaking of their worship ministries and both what it means, and what it means to them. It was personally very moving to share with you the rich biblical, historical foundation of our liturgy and Eucharistic Sacraments.
- Rev. Ashley
