Good day St. Paul’s,

We have a lot happening this week at St. Paul's. Please see below for more.

Also, for the event on Monday night, we would like to get a rough estimate of how many from St. Paul's will be in attendance. If you plan to attend that event, please let the office know :-) 

Sincerely, 
RJ Chambers
Office Administrator

You’ll also have the opportunity to connect with your persecuted family through letter writing and prayer. Also, if you are able to run projection for this event, please let RJ know.

If you do not have a photo but would like to have a photo included, please talk to RJ and he will take your photo to be posted.
