Our seasonal Quiet Days provided an opportunity to learn and practice meditation and contemplative prayer. Carol Martin, with the assistance of the Rector, coordinates weekly meetings and services of Compline for the Canterbury Club at Bowdoin College. We take joy in honoring our Episcopal tradition while at the same time challenging ourselves with renewing ideas. As we grow in knowledge, we become better able to educate our children in Christ and to share our faith with others. The Parish Life Commission provides opportunity to build fellowship among the people of St. Paul's.
Individuals share and give to one another as they volunteer to provide a variety of activities.
Through this sharing and giving, we are fostering a community of faith where individuals are enriched in their journey, stretching and strengthening each of us to be better witnesses of God's love. The mission of the pastoral care commission of St. Paul's is to be an instrument of Christ's love for parishioners in need, being a ready resource that will assist the clergy in pastoral care. As an Outreach Commission we affirm and seek to live out that covenant in our mission at St. Paul's. Accordingly, we work to deepen parish awareness of injustice and need. We strive to challenge and to educate one another, attempting to speak the truth as we see it in order not to mislead others by our silence.
