Christmas Flower Remembrances

The Altar Guild of St. Paul’s will decorate the church for the glorious services of Christmas Eve with seasonal flowering plants and flowers. It is our custom that these flowers are given in memory of loved ones as well as a meaningful thanksgiving for the blessing in our lives.The names of those remembered and honored, and the donors, will be printed in the Christmas bulletin. On the form below list the full name(s) of those you would like to have included and your name as you wish it to be acknowledged in the bulletin. The plants and flowers will be delivered to those we want to reach out to and especially remember at this time of the year.

All orders are due by Sunday, December 17. A contribution of $15 for each name is requested.


Help Deliver Christmas Flowerspointsettas_987

We will be delivering poinsettias after Christmas services this year. If you and your family are looking to make someone’s holiday a little brighter, this is a nice opportunity to do so! Volunteers can plan to stop by the Church on Wednesday, December 27, and pick up a plant or two from the church sanctuary. Then, come downstairs and pick up cards with the names, addresses, and phone numbers of recipients for each plant. The cards will be on tables arranged by zip code. If you are interested in helping, email the Rev. Erin Morey [email protected].

The Book of Occasional Services offers Christmas Lessons and Music. On Sunday, December 31, we will offer Christmas Lessons and Music. Comprising the Service of the Word followed by Holy Eucharist, the service is a series of seasonal readings followed by hymns, carols, choral works, solos and other instrumental music. The service is based loosely on Lessons and Music first celebrated at King’s College, Cambridge in 1918.
