Mite Box Collection

Children and families that have been collecting change throughout Lent, it is time to return your mite boxes. Those small, white boxes given out during Lent have hopefully been collecting change to donate to our Lazarus Ministry. Bring them this Sunday, or any Sunday throughout the Easter season, and drop them off in the baskets at the back of the church (near the children's bulletins).

• There’s still time to take our communications survey, and we’d love to have your feedback! If you have not already, please take the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/stpaulscomm. This survey is anonymous, and your input will assist us in most effectively forging the path ahead.
• This is the last week for returning the Memorial Easter Lily forms. They are due in the office this Friday. Please make your checks payable to St. Paul’s and write “Lilies” in the memo line.

Easter Lily Donations

Each year St. Paul’s parishioners remember loved ones with a donation for lilies to the church. Envelopes are available in each pew for this purpose. Please write “Lilies” in the memo line on all checks. Envelopes may be returned with the offering or to the office by March 22.
