Welcome TO OUR WARM & LOVING cOMMUNITY

St. Paul's Episcopal Church is a warm and loving community of approximately 800 baptized members. Located on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay, it is situated in one of the most scenic and fastest growing counties in Alabama. In this place we try to follow the teachings and examples of Jesus Christ, not so much by speculating "What would Jesus do?," but rather attempting to emulate what Jesus did do. This theology for ministry is captured in our Mission Statement: "We worship together as we seek God, serve God, and share God with love and acceptance for all." You are cordially invited to join us in worship. It is my prayer that you will find your time with us a blessing.

God bless you,

Thack Dyson, Rector

Great Wednesday @ 6 - September 10th
Thack will offer a new teaching series for our Great Wednesday @ 6:00 program beginning September 10. We will do a book study with discussion and reflection of Barbara Brown-Taylor’s book, An Altar in the World: A Geography of Faith.

Taylor’s book is a spiritual memoir and guidebook that helps readers recognize that the sacred is not confined to church walls but is woven into the fabric of daily life. Taylor, an Episcopal priest and gifted storyteller, teaches that one can encounter God in ordinary practices and experiences — walking, paying attention, being still, engaging with others, working, resting, and even making mistakes.

If you would like to be a part of this GW@6 offering, please contact Terri in the church office at (251) 626-2421. The book costs $10.00 and we will order them before the first class based on the number of people who have signed up for the class. As always, we will gather on Wednesday evenings in Malone Hall at 6:00 for a meal and begin our class promptly at 6:30.

The Parables of Jesus
Thack will offer an eight week Adult Sunday school teaching series on the Parables of Jesus beginning September 14 at 9:15 a.m. in Conference Room A in the Howard Wilson Center. There are seven genres of the parables of Jesus: parables of the kingdom; parables of grace; parables of judgment; parables of reversal; parables of everyday wisdom; parables of vigilance; and short parabolic sayings (similitudes). Together, they invite us not only to understand ideas but to experience a transformation of vision so that we see the world as God sees it.

Each session will begin with prayer, a reading of the parables followed by a short exegesis of the parables, and then group discussion. Participants will know in advance of each session the parables to be discussed. Please call Terri in the parish office at (251) 626-2421, and let her know if you wish to attend. I look forward to our conversations.
We still need your

Emergency Preparedness Form!!!

The Emergency Preparedness Meeting met to go over procedures to be taken should we have a hurricane or emergency event in our area. The Committee is asking parishioners to help us by filling out an Emergency Contact Information Form. The form will help us in assisting you and/or know where you will be located should and emergency event take place. Even if you filled the form out in the past, we ask that you fill out a new one this year. You may place the forms in the offering plate on Sunday, mail it, email it or drop it off at the office.

Also, our Lodging Committee would like to know if you would be willing to open your home or to offer a place to stay for a parishioner who is alone or has to evacuate in the event of a hurricane or emergency event. Please email the office with your name and contact information if you can help with lodging.
