A habit of name tag wearing is good for our fellow parishioners and for future staff looking to learn everyone’s name.
There is a sheet in the back for those missing or lost name tags.

Dear Good People of St. Paul's,
While this note of gratitude is somewhat tardy, it is no less heartfelt. I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you for your kind words, lovely gifts, and generous contributions to my new discretionary fund at St. David's. For those of you who helped with the lovely parting reception in my honor,thank youfor a wonderful event. Donna, Maddie, and I will be hanging out at Cheekwood often over the next few months as we use our new membership.
I do miss St. Paul's, but I am happy to report that things are going well at St. David's--except for me trying to learn everyone's name. Names have always been a challenge for me. I have found myself filling similar roles that I had at St. Paul's, but I have taken on some new tasksas well. Change is never easy, but often necessary, and I am determined to make the most of it.
The entire St. Paul's family remains inmy prayers, and if you ever need a change of pace on aSundaymorning, come check us out at St. David's. Let me know you are coming, and I will leave a trail of breadcrumbs.
Peace and Blessing to you all,
Burns
