ALL Women of St. Paul’s

We are planning a Women’s Retreat for March 9 & 10 at the home of Susan Haberstroh in Bethany Beach. Don’t miss this time together. More details to come!

This past Sunday, more than 50 women stayed to hear about the SPRING Women’s Retreat March 9 & 10 in Bethany Beach! More important, we had several servants who offered their homes and talents. Don’t miss this time together! PUT IT ON YOUR CALENDAR NOW, arrange for your babysitters and pour on the prayer as we begin to finalize our plans. The cost will be low, the inspiration will be powerful, the prayer will change your life and the fellowship will cement your relationship to your sisters! Please contact Pastor Karin if you can help in the following areas:

* Lodging—if you have a home in Bethany Beach

* Publicity & Promotion

* Registration

* Transportation coordinator

* Program Team

ST. PAUL’S GREEN TEAM

St. Paul’s is putting together an ad hoc committee to establish our “Green Goals.” The committee will be a 5 person team whose main mission will be to research and suggest a 5 year plan on how to reduce our carbon footprint. It would be great to have a cross section of the Church represented… We are hoping that the youth will be a very important part of this. Pastor Karin will be doing a sermon series this summer related to “Green Church.” Please contact Mark Holden if you interested. 378-9158 or mark@maholden.com

The first Green Team project is underway! To help cut down on energy costs, we have decided to replace the light bulbs in the sanctuary and around the church with energy efficient bulbs over the coming months. Help support the Green Team by purchasing some handmade greeting cards during fellowship. All profits from this fundraiser will go towards the cost of replacing the bulbs.

Single Card with Envelope.............$2 Each

Set of 4 Cards and 4 Envelopes.....$7 per set

Thank you ahead of time for your support in helping to keep God’s magnificent earth beautiful!

Superb food, great fellowship, abundant donations, and generous bidders...what a wonderful time we all had! The initial accounting shows we took in over $13,000. After paying a few outstanding expenses, we should have a net result around $12,000. Now the true work begins. How will we use this money? – remember, those neighbors in need both near and far? If you know of individuals or groups in need, please pass on the information to Pastor T or a member of the Church Council. We do not want the money to sit in a bank account. Let’s get busy and use it to help others.

And a special thank you to all….the committee, the teens, the donors, and the friends and neighbors who came to buy. It took everyone working together to achieve another successful event at St. Paul’s.

What a hoot! Honky Tonk Mystery Theater Suspects were a hit! Many thanks to Marcia Wheeler, Geri Dorman, Jan Corby, Jackie Connell and Helen George---and all the Cast and crew who outdid themselves to provide a wonderful evening of fun!
