- Saturday, September 30th 2017 - Saturday afternoon of music - Stephen Hardy Palmer Country-Roots Concert. 2 hours of music—30% of ticket sales to St. Paul’s. Mark your calendar! Tickets are available at the church office: Adults $15 and Children under 12 are Free. *Ticket sales are selling poorly. Please consider buying tickets for our fundraiser to help our church. Bring your family and friends, and join us for an entertaining afternoon. We need to know approximately the number of people who will be attending the concert.
- Thanks to everyone who inquired about the Dunrea Flea Market Fundraising Project. No funds were raised as our church family did not participate this year. As stewardship is approaching, perhaps members of the church family could add to the collection plate the amount that it would have cost you to provide baking for or work at the Flea Market. The funds would not be designated as Flea Market, but would go into general funds. Thank you for your consideration.
- Confirmation classes will start in Fall of 2017
- For the month of October, St. Paul’s will collect non-perishable food items for the Food Pantry.
- Information on Turtle Mountain Bible Camp is on the table at the back of the Sanctuary
- Information on Rock Lake United Church Camp is on the table at the back of the Sanctuary

- The 42nd General Council made major decisions to transform the structure of The United Church of Canada. These decisions do not take effect unless the broader church approves through the “remit” process. The eight remits, with background information about them, are now available at GC42.ca/remitsA reminder to please ensure all expense receipts for Church purchases have your name and a purpose written on them. For example, Spring Supper or funeral service purchase receipts from the Co-Op should indicate what the purchases were for directly on the receipt with your signature, otherwise, the numbers on the financial reports for Spring Supper/funeral services expenses may be incorrect. Also, if you run out of envelopes and use your own, please be sure to mark them with your name or envelope number or you will not receive a taxable receipt for the donation. Any labelled envelopes received that are not Church envelopes serve as a request for new envelopes and will be available for pick up in the Sanctuary the following week or the week after. Please don’t hesitate to contact Cora on Mondays 9:00am-1:00pm if you have any questions and concerns.
