Dear All, It is crazy town around the office as we prepare all the materials for our annual meeting. On top of that, we are introducing our St. Paul’s Legacy Giving Society at the same time. Plus, we have the Lansing Symphony Orchestra’s fabulous Winterlude concert next Sunday. The concert is literally sold out. If […]

Dear All, First, I hope you have a wonderful holiday! Perhaps you are traveling to someplace warm. Or, heading to a family gathering to celebrate Christmas. Or, staying home and reading a good book. Whatever it is, I hope it brings you peace and joy. I also hope you all return safe and sound in […]

December 7, 2025 Dear All, I’m not sure that I have anything wise or particularly wonderful to say to you all today. I suspect you also have those days.

November 16, 2025 Dear All, Today we gather in your pledge cards which declare your financial commitment to the ministry of St. Paul’s in 2026. First, thank you!

November 9, 2025 Dear All, It is chaos at the office today – concrete truck in the parking lot pouring cement to create our new heated snow melting pad – electricians drilling holes and installing wire for a switch that will control the snow melting pad – the Bishop coming to park here so she […]

October 5, 2025 Dear Friends, Once again, we are horrified by a mass shooting that has taken place in a worship space – a space that is supposed to be a sanctuary for all. A sacred place of safety, community and God. Perhaps the horror is magnified as it occurred ‘just down the road’ from […]

Dear All, For our congregational note this week, I thought perhaps we could have some fun. I have an article that lists the Top 12 Monsters in the Bible, and I thought I would share some of it with you. So here goes! The First Zombie? In 2 Kings 13:20-21, the prophet Elisha died and […]

June 8, 2025 I love baptisms! Today, we are doing two of them. We will welcome John Francis (Jack) Alexander and Onóra Ciera Rose Hart into the Christian community, the Body of Christ. Whether they are laughing or crying, it is a joy to pour water over their foreheads and seal them with chrism as […]
