Weekly Bulletin
We are thrilled to welcome our new full time Priest Rev. Lynn Mitchell to St. Paul's. Rev. Lynn+, will be continuing to sort her office, and learning more about life here at St. Paul’s. She will be in the office Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, 9:30am – 1pm the week of Sept. 11th. Please drop by to say hello! Not being one for titles, she prefers simply to be called “Lynn”, although “Rev. Lynn” is OK too. Lynn+ can be reached by email at revlynnam@gmail.com . Friday is Lynn’s day off, and any emails or messages left on Fridays will be responded to Saturday afternoon, with the important exception of pastoral emergencies.
A Blessing of the Animals: Sunday, October 1st @ 4:00pm. St. Paul’s Anglican Church @ the corner of Pine and Victoria.

Weather-permitting, we will gather outside on the church lawn. If not, in the Parish Hall. All are Welcome!
