Each week fresh flowers are placed on the Altar. During the month of September we need someone to sign up for flowers on the 20th and 27th. In October, we need someone to sign up for the 25th. The flowers cost $53 and the gift of flowers is a tax deductable gift to our Church. Please sign up or contact Clare Hawes at mwhawes@comporium.net or Karen Rogers, our Parish Secretary, at stpauls@comporium.net.

York Place is experiencing financial shortages due to Medicare/Medicaid shortages. The loose offering and checks written for York Place Emphasis Sunday were designated for York Place on July 26th. If you missed this chance to help out, you still may participate in helping this important ministry of St. Paul’s. Write your check to either St. Paul’s or York Place—-but ***you must *** write “York Place Emphasis Sunday” in the memo field (or “for” field) of your check. Thank you for your generous gift. York Place depends on all of us.
Each week, except during Lent, our Church Altar is adorned with flowers. The addition of flowers adds so much visual interest. We would love to fill up the flower chart for the remainder of the year. If you would like to put flowers on the Altar to remember someone or celebrate a birthday, anniversary, baptism, etc., please sign up on the calendar in the Narthex. The flowers cost $53 each week, unless you want something special, and are tax deductible. Karen Rogers will get in touch with you when your date gets close to find out about your special occasion. If you have any questions, please contact Clare Hawes at mwhawes@comporium.net or at (803) 547-2552.
The Altar Guild is almost completely funded by contributions from Parishioners and memorial gifts. The Altar Guild uses contributions to buy the Altar hangings, wine, torches, and all the silver to name just a few items that are used in the Sanctuary.
Many of the linen towels and pacificators that are used weekly are beginning to show wear and tear from the years of use. These linens need to be replaced. The towels and pacificators range in price from $20 to $25 each. If you would like to make a monetary gift to the Altar Guild to help purchase replacement linens it would be greatly appreciated. Remember these gifts are tax deductable.
If you have any questions or commits, please contact me via email at mwhawes@conporium.net.
Thank you for your support.

As noted in a letter to the Congregation just before Thanksgiving, St. Paul’s needs additional financial support of its ongoing programs and ministries. However, the financial statement included with the letter warrants some context. Continue reading ‘2009 Stewardship Campaign’
