What's happening this week at St. Paul's

October 18-24, 2026

A message in regards to restoring our church windows

Dear St. Paul's Family,

As most of you probably know, we had the large window over the Narthex restored in 2022. It’s lovely. The remainder of the windows need the same work. They are not just dirty and obscured by the Plexi glass that covers them on the outside: they are beginning to buckle a little at the bottom from the weight of the glass. Soos Stain Glass in Little Rock has agreed to restore the windows in the Sanctuary and in the Sacristy for the price it gave us in 2022: $59,000. We have a little over $20,000 already donated to a budget line exclusively designated for this restoration. Later in the Fall you will be getting a letter asking for your help. We know it is stewardship season, and therefore the best season for us to rethink about taking care of our windows as well to glorify God's name.

If you have any ideas, questions, or concerns, please contact Rev. Carolyne, Nikki Bittle, Jon Perkins, and Virginia Wray.

Again, thank you all for your continued support of St. Paul's church.

Yours in Christ,

Carolyne+

Rector, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church.
