Members and Friends,

Founders Day was such a great time and what a blessing The Auman family was! Thank you to those who joined us in person for the service, fellowship, and bake sale or tuned in online. You can view all the pictures in our Founders Day 2025 Gallery.

Founder’s Day was also covered in the news by WTXL ! Read the article.

Also, we officially broke 50 gallons of blood donated all time as we had 17 donors donate 2.375 gallons of blood. This brings our all time total to 51.25 gallons. We'll do it again in September!

Capital Project Update: 2025

Our capital project for 2025 will be to replace the original windows from the 1950's that were the idea of Rev. Bob Parks vision for St. Paul's in our Parish hall, and other exteriors including the offices. The cost is expected to be between 15 - 18k. We are not doing a formal capital campaign this year but if you feel led to make a donation, please write "capital fund" or "window fund" on your check and mail it to the church or put it in the collection plate. It is our hope to count all donations by Sunday August 17th.
