The room is truly taking shape with a fresh coat of paint and new carpeting. The majority of the furniture including the conference tables, credenzas and reading chairs have been delivered and we await a couple of book cases, flat screen TV and window treatments. This is a much needed and long-over due renovation of the old library which had fallen on very hard times. This exciting renovation and renewal project will provide welcoming space for our adult faith formation classes, bible study and small group meeting space for the chaplaincy and much needed meeting space for the parish, chaplaincy and Choir School. The multi-media room should be completed in the next couple of weeks. This space contributes well to the overall evolution and growth of St. Paul's Parish and will support our mission to promote and to live the vital work of the New Evangelization for years to come. ALL SOUL S DAY REMEMBRANCE In the great tradition of the Catholic Church, for centuries the month of November has been set aside as special time of prayer and remembrance of our loved ones who have died. Our prayer at all times, but particularly during November, is directed to our loving God asking Him to welcome those we have lost into His presence to stand amongst the angels and the saints in eternal peace. Here at St. Paul s we will remember all of our deceased relatives and friends who have gone to the Lord in the Masses and times of prayer during November, the month of the Holy Souls. In a special way, we ask you to please take an All Soul s Day remembrance offering envelope (available at the doors of the church) and list the names of those you wish to have remembered in prayer during this month. Please return your envelope via the collection basket or to the Parish Office. All envelopes will be placed on the altar for remembrance during November.
