MINISTRY HIGHLIGHTS AND SUMMERTIME REFRESHMENTS:
There are no refreshments this week. Many of our ministries are taking a little time off this summer.

Next week Care and Share will be serving refreshments in front of the church following the 9:00 a.m. service. This is an in-reach ministry where members of St. Paul’s respond to short-term needs of parishioners, such as providing visits, meals or transportation. Please stop by to learn more about this compassionate and helpful ministry.

ADULT FORMATION
Sunday Mornings: The NOOMA series of modern parables by Rob Bell continues this morning in the Youth Wing, following the 9:00 a.m. service. join us for a short video, 10-14 minutes long, and informal discussion.

Wednesday Evenings:  The Adult Formation Committee will again share the BBC Series, A History of Christianity, hosted by Diarmaid MacCulloch at 7:00 p.m. in the Youth Wing.  The videos are an hour long.

  • August 8 – God in the Dock

MONTHLY DEVOTIONALS: “Welcoming in Christ” is the discipleship-stewardship emphasis linking St. Paul’s 60th Anniversary and the Anniversary Capital Campaign.  To supplement this, each month a special devotional reflection will be offered. The theme for August is “Sixty Years of Growth and Outreach Programs.” You can find these devotionals on our St. Paul’s website (www.stpaulscary.org). If you’d like to share your thoughts on a theme, you may email them to reflections@stpaulscary.org.

PRAYER LIST RENEWAL: We ask that those who have requested friends and loved ones be included on the prayer list, email the office at stpauls@stpaulscary.org or call the office at 919-467-1477 extension 10, to renew the request. Please contact Melanie Fairbrother by Monday, August 13 to renew your request. Call or email anytime to remove a name. Please do not assume that we know the name should be renewed.

WELCOMING IN CHRIST – THE ANNIVERSARY CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
Vision Tours Occurring Throughout August: The Welcoming in Christ Campaign committee is happy to announce vision tours occurring every Sunday in August from 10:00-10:45 a.m.  Your tour guides will guide you through our current facilities to honor the memories of our spaces and to help you envision what the new spaces will look like after our Capital Campaign!  We’ll meet you in the Narthex, near the choir room, to start our tour.

SUMMER CONTRIBUTIONS:  Dear Parishioners – I hope you are having a wonderful summer!  We normally don’t write a Warden’s Corner update during the summer, but I want to update you on current stewardship and upcoming events.  Stewardship contributions traditionally lag a little during summer, but this summer, for some reason, is more of an exception than the rule.  Please prayerfully consider bringing your 2018 stewardship pledge payments up to date.  This will help us keep the lights on, clergy and clerical staff paid, and infrastructure like air conditioners etc. working.

Sunday September 16th is the 60th celebration of St. Paul’s and the official kick-off for the Welcoming in Christ – The Anniversary Capital Campaign.  To date we have received over $1,000,000 in capital campaign pledges, but we have a long way to go to reach our goal of $3,250,000.  In Peace – Jeff Kager, Senior Warden

VETERANS AND MILITARY OUTREACH (VMO) needs your help to ensure our Military and Veterans receive the necessary supplies to beat the heat this summer.  Simply drop off sunscreen, lip balm, and foot powder in the VMO Wagon.

THE ARTS & CRAFTS FESTIVAL committee is looking for a new committee member to manage the St. Paul’s Table, which sells handmade items donated by parishioners.  We’d love to have you join us in raising money for outreach.  If you’re interested and would like to know more, please contact Sally Moller, sbm2@nc.rr.com.

Nextdoor Instructions

Thank you for agreeing to publicize Lobster Fest on Nextdoor. Here are a few things we’re asking:

  1. Please post this as an Event.
  2. Under “Choose Neighbors,” select Yours and Nearby
  3. For Category, choose Festival. Title is “Lobster Fest Cary“.
  4. Cut and paste this description, please:

Lobster Fest Cary brings the fresh taste of Maine lobster right here to Wake County! The lobsters are pulled out of the water, packed in a cooler truck in Maine and driven overnight to Cary. Dine-In and enjoy a social event or Take Out and make your own event – Live Lobster, Cooked Lobster, Lobster Rolls – you decide! Pre-ordering online (lobsterfestcary.org) is a must, as quantities often run out early in the day, and we hate to disappoint Lobster Lovers.
