Peter Pays Paul

That is why no restoration work has been done
since the completion of the education building roof.

We borrowed $60,000 from Paul (our endowment fund)
to pay Peter (Imhoff Restoration).
Before we commence work on the remaining projects
of Phase II of the Restoration we must pay Paul back.

Our goal is do this by Spring of 2001,
so we can replace
the ailing furnace and heating system
in the education building next summer.

Interview With God

In a dream, I had an interview with God.

After exchanging pleasantries I asked God, "As a parent, what would you ask your children to do?"

God replied with a smile:

To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.

To learn that they should control their attitudes, otherwise their attitudes will control them.

To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them.

To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.

Golden Chain of Care

What is it?

It is a ministry of St. Paul’s.

It is our home bound.

It is a circle of Love and Caring.

It is a small group of people who give God’s love.

It is a pretty card on a gloomy day.

It is a voice on the phone brightening a day.

It is a visit in which you bring God’s presence.

It is loving God and neighbor.

Its motto is - I am only one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something with the help of God.

Its links are Marge Conger, Elaine Dittman, Alice Myers, Coralee Fabian, Chris Schmidt and Alice Plantec.

We would love to add you to our chain of care givers. With the list of home bound and those in nursing homes growing, we could use your help.

If you want to know more or volunteer to be a link, you can call the church office 828-0020 or speak to Alice Plantec.
