Morgans packing up and ready to go

We're right in the middle of Pickfords packing all our stuff up ready to move to the States where Richard is going to be installed as the Rector of the Church of the Good Samaritan on the 28th January. We're flying out on the 10th January.

Many thanks for your kind farewells, and the lovely picture of St Paul's that you gave us on Christmas Day. Ruth and the children are planning on being at one last Sunday morning service this Sunday; Richard is taking the morning service at St Martin's.

Lots of people have asked for our address details in the States.

Faith in Action

July Project 2011.jpg

At St Paul’s Church, we don’t just believe good news; we want to be good news!  So it was great to see 138 people from the church put their faith into action back in July as they decorated, gardened, cleaned and tidied for people across Salisbury.  22 teams of all ages spent a day working with people referred to St Paul's by agencies such as Community4 and Alabare Include.

What do you think when you see a hoody?

 Shaun Hill 2.JPGFor some people it’s a cause for concern so much so that they cross the road to avoid what it may represent. But for Shaun Hill, from St Paul’s Church Salisbury it sparked a great campaign to help 94 children in Bulgaria find a positive identity in a broken society.  

Halfway to America

I'm really pleased to say that we heard this morning that the I-360 has been approved (the immigration petition which establishes our eligibility for a visa). We now enter a long visa processing stage which means that we won't be actually moving until Christmas at the earliest. We will be saying goodbye, but not quite yet...

July Project 2011

July Project hits the beach (hut!)

16 young people who have completed their GCSEs and A Levels have given a week of their extended holiday to serve their local community through St Paul's annual July Project.

St Paul's Men's Breakfast

We had an excellent breakfast on June 18th, well attended by about 53 men.

Another Big Saturday!

138 people put their faith into action on Saturday 9th July as they decorated, gardened, cleaned and tidied for various people across Salisbury. 22 teams ranging in age from 18 months to their early 70s, spent the day working with people referred to St Paul's by agencies such as Community4 and Alabare Include.

Church Family Picnic!

On July 3rd we had our Church Picnic in the grounds of St Paul’s School, after the morning service. The bouncy castle proved to be very popular with the younger ones and throughout the afternoon football, volleyball and many other outdoor games including giant Jenga and a treasure hunt was enjoyed by all. picnic.jpg
