We will be placing our next order for gift cards in a few weeks. The deadline for individual orders and payment is Sunday, June 20. If you have any school graduations, weddings or anniversaries coming up soon, consider giving a gift card for a favourite store, restaurant or activity. It’s also a good time to stock up on groceries and other items for the cottage. You can do all that with gift cards from FundScrip. Each purchase automatically includes a donation from the retailer to St. Paul’s. Order forms are available at the church office, in the Narthex on Sunday or you can print a copy by clicking here: http://www.stpaulsunited.ca/
Remember: Shopping is fundraising for St. Paul’s!
4. Preaching this week is Reverend Michelle Armstrong
5. St. Paul’s Community of Faith Committee Letter to Congregation
Greetings St. Paul’s friends!
The Community Of Faith Committee is looking forward to speaking with you by phone, by Teams, or by a mail in survey. The choice is yours, and we are interested in hearing what you have to say in any way that you chose.
We have prepared questions that we believe will get to the heart of who we believe we are as friends and members of St. Paul’s United Church. For those of you who are comfortable using applications such as Teams or Zoom, simply let us know by responding to this email using this address derrick6g@gmail.com and put Teams in the subject line of your email. Once we have a list of the people interested, we will send out an invitation to you which will have a date and time.
For those of you who wish to respond to the questions by written response, put ‘written survey’ in the subject line and we will either email a questionnaire to you or send you a paper copy for you to write on and deliver it back to us.
For those of you who wish to speak by phone, simply respond to this email using this address derrick6g@gmail.com and put ‘phone’ in the subject line. Please include your phone number as well as the best time to call, and we will have one of our committee members reach out to you.
Once we have collected the survey information, we will put a summary of the answers together for the Board, and eventually it will be available to you. The goal of this exercise is for us all to get a better understanding of both who we are, as well as what we think we should be doing.
Please respond to this email using this address derrick6g@gmail.com and don’t forget to put your communication preference in the subject line. We look forward to hearing from you!
Derrick Grant, on behalf of Roger Miller, Erin Hayes, Janis Violette, Blaine Irving and Ann Krause
