YAMs Fall Work Day
On Saturday, September 11th, at 9:00 a.m., the St. Paul's YAMs gather at St. Paul's to begin a work half-day. Chief among our projects will be painting shelves for the Godly Play Christian Education Room. Also, we will be helping a few other parishioners with light work at their homes - chores that they could otherwise not do. Everything should be wrapped-up by lunchtime, where we will gather for a shared meal at Big River Grille. We hope to see a big turnout for this fun service event that will really help the St. Paul's Community.
Yours in Christ,
Bob

September Habitat Build Day
On Saturday, September 18th, at 8:45, St. Paul's parishioners (among them YAMs) will gather in the St. Paul’s parking lot to carpool to a Habitat Build. Habitat for Humanity builds homes in partnership with those who would otherwise be unable to purchase a home. There is no cost (outside sweat equity) associated with this event. After we all arrive at St. Paul’s, we will carpool to the build site to work for the morning shift. We should wrap up around lunch time.
As many of you may also know, there is a required form to be filled out in order to work. I am making that form available here. Just print out the form and bring it with you on Saturday. If you forget, I will try to have some forms with me at 8:45 AM, which is when I will be getting there. Our official work time is the morning shift of 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. After our shift ends, we will luncheon together - time, weather, and cash permitting.
Yours in Christ,
Bob
