Parking Lot
Project
Dean Cathleen Bascom describes how a $100,000 I-JOBS grant will be
used to install gardens that exemplify good water practices. The
Downtown School principal John Johnson, Vice-president of
PACE/Juvenile Center John Spinks, and Interim Youth Director Vern
Johnson explore how the gardens might offer educational
opportunities for neighboring youth and children.

Weddings
In the Episcopal Church, Holy Matrimony is not just a ceremony of
public commitment. It is a Sacrament. In the Episcopal
tradition, marriage is more than two people trying to build a life
together; it is an opportunity for God to do something special in us
and
for us. St. Paul's is
happy to host weddings for active members and their immediate
families. Occasionally we extend this hospitality to others.

married at St. Paul's? |
