GARDENS OF ST. PAUL'S: Brian Bostwick, who was involved in the rennovation of the gardens of St. Anne's, has offered to help do a similar job for St. Paul's. The first stage will be done by a work party of senior boys who will weed the border under Brian's supervision (thereby earning credits for their community service necessary for high school leaving.) We hope to have this first stage done before the July BBQ.

.
Then new plants and shrubs, together with some form of border definition - probably rocks - will be purchased, using money from the Flower Fund. Carole Hein & Rotha Sutherland will continue to be involved in the work - if you are interested in helping, please contact Brian, Carole or Rotha.

EPILOGUE: Come and join us. Our Eucharist Sunday Service @ 10:30 am. and Wednesday Study & Holy Eucharist Celebration @ 10:00 am.
God bless you
