WORSHIP THIS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1 @ 10:15AM: “LOOKING WITH GRATITUDE” will be the theme of the fourth service in the "A Wonderful Life" series. In this final week of our series, we look with an attitude of gratitude at the ways our practices of dealing with money can be transformed because we have brought the subject out of the shadows and into the light. In doing so, we have opened ourselves to a greater sense of community, just as the early Christians did when they worked together to support one another. The Lord's Supper will be celebrated. If you are worshipping at home, gather some bread and juice. The service will be on-line at St Paul's Facebook page and YouTube as well as on-site. At the on-site service, the music and most of the liturgy will be pre-recorded and projected on the video screen while the sermon, announcements, and prayers will be led by Pastor Bill live. Everyone present will wear masks and practice social distancing. Parents will need to keep their children with them since there will be no nursery. In-person and on-site Sunday School is from 9:30am to 10:00am. You will be able to find the Service Order and Announcements here.
Here is a a full list of the safety protocols we have instituted.
Please do not attend if you have any symptoms of Covid19 or
have been exposed to anyone with the disease in the past 10 days.
