Cookbook Devotional
The St. Paul’s Summer of Suppers Cookbook Devotional is written by the people of the St. Paul’s community. This digital cookbook is in celebration of our Summer of Suppers and an entry will be released each week for you to enjoy. Each recipe includes a reflection that comes from the author of the recipe. Before you begin cooking, we invite you to read the reflection. As you cook and eat, you are invited to savor the words of the author as much as the dish.
Check every Wednesday throughout the Summer of Suppers for a new recipe.
