The Circle's Donation Drop Off | Collection Day
Saturday, September 12 | 10am -1:30pm
Occidental Parking Lot
Amid your summer cleaning, please keep the rummage sale in mind. Donations from the community make St. Paul’s rummage sales possible, and every contribution helps support The Circle’s programs and outreach efforts. Gently-used household items, clothes, décor, kitchenware, books, linens, toys, and other treasures are all welcome.
Please enter the drive-thru via Occidental at St. Paul's Episcopal Church and note that our team will strictly follow the updated Donation Acceptance List.
St. Paul's Annual Welcome Back Party
Sunday, September 13 | Following the 10am service
St. Paul's Nursery School Playground
Savor the start of a new year of friendships, making memories, and shared spirit that connect us to St. Paul’s 100-year history and inspire a new season of ministry together. St. Paul’s Centennial Committee is planning a not-to-be missed lunch and gathering after church. Contact Bill Phillips to indicate your interest in being involved and come be part of this nourishing day of fun and fellowship!
The Circle's Rummage Sale!
Friday, October 2 - Saturday, October 3
Volunteers are needed throughout the process — organizing donations, setting up, helping during the sale, and cleaning up afterward. Whether you can give a few hours or a full day, your time and energy are greatly appreciated.
If you’re interested in volunteering, please reach out to Susan Group and let her know when you’re available to help.
Save the Date: Progressive Dinners!
Saturday, October 10
Please save the date for Progressive Dinners Saturday October 10. Each fall we gather in small groups for dinner in parishioners’ homes to enjoy fellowship in a small setting and get to know folks we might not already know. We will gather at church for refreshments and then head out to have dinner at one home before “progressing” to another host’s home for dessert. This year will be extra special as we celebrate the 100th anniversary of laying the cornerstone of our sanctuary. We are working on child care arrangements so that parents can participate.
We will do sign ups starting in September online and after church on Sundays and will look to have sign ups finalized Sunday September 27.
We could still use a few hosts, so please get in touch if you have room to seat about 8 people. (If you don’t like to cook, we can connect you with someone who does to partner with you.)
Questions, please contact Anne Casscells (acasscells@gmail.com)

This is a wonderful opportunity to put faith into action while connecting with others in our church community and serving a repair/rebuilding need in our broader region. Save the date and look for sign-ups in August. We'd love for you to join us in making a positive impact together! Contact Serina Beauparlant with any questions.
Blessing of the Animals
Sunday, October 4
Creation-loving saints Francis and Claire inspire our warm welcome of furry, fluffy, feathery family members to come to church with you! If your dear pets are a little too restless for that, simply meet us outside the doors of the church and chapel, at the conclusion of our Sunday services, where treats and blessings will be available in Skillings Garden!

Foote Hall
ChurchNext, an offering of Forward Movement, will provide a new online curriculum, “Becoming Beloved Community: Understanding Systemic Racism.” The course is available for individuals at no charge. You may register for the course any time at churchnext.tv.
Designed for study over a period of six weeks, the curriculum explores how systemic racism has been integrated into U.S. culture from the very beginning, as well as the Episcopal Church’s history of active participation in systemic racism. The curriculum offers guidance on learning from this history and building toward what the Episcopal Church’s Presiding Bishop Michael Curry describes as “the Beloved Community of God.”
