Weekly Update Dec 18, 2020: A Letter from the Rector

Dear Friends, As we walk together through this Advent Season, I’d like to highlight ways you can make a difference, the Christmas Offering, our schedule of this coming week’s celebrations and events, new vestry members, and this Sundays worship, during which we are going to have a special guest. (Be sure to watch this Sunday with your children.) Read George’s letter.

Unfastening Our Cluttered Minds

This week in the Hope for the Journey series, Fr. Javier reflects on prayer and distraction: “Our habits—even the ones we would rather do without—can guide us deeper into what we really need. They can help us find what we are truly seeking, if we would stop for a moment and pay attention.”

St. Nicholas Day

St. Nicholas Day (Dec 4, 2020)

Donations to St. Nicholas can still be made by credit card or PayPal by end-of-day December 4.  Follow the directions on this page and don’t forget to specify “St. Nicholas.”: http://staging.stpaulscary.org/stewardship/donate-to-st-pauls/.  COVID-19 means we will not be able to meet and turn in our gifts and receive our chocolate “gold” as usual. But we can still remember those in need.  We will buy and distribute gift cards to the roughly 400 children at the agencies we support.
