Albany Via Media Presentation

"Communion, Covenant and Conversation" is the title of a talk being given by The Rev. Dr. Frank Wade on Saturday, April 10 at 2 p.m. at St Paul's Episcopal Church, Hackett Blvd. Sponsored by Albany Via Media, the event will be a time to hear a noted authority in Episcopal and Anglican Communion relations talk on the subject of the proposed Anglican Covenant. All are welcomed to this informative and important afternoon.

Easter Thank Yous!

The beautiful services of Holy Week would not have been possible without the hard work of many talented, dedicated people. It is impossible to mention everyone who helped! A special thanks go to all, especially:

• Dr. Eppink and the Chancel Choir who sang so beautifully at multiple services;

• Members of the parish who stepped in with voice and instrument to augment the work of the choir, including: Richard Bourgeois, Frieda Carnell, Margaret Hendrickson, Dorothy Johnson, Beth Brown and Caroline Gregg;

• The Altar and Flower Guilds who made the altar - bare or dressed - a beauty to behold;

• Martha Iannacone for leading a reverent and fun Children's Easter Vigil;

• Rich Angelo for being the behind the scenes 'gremlin' at many services;

• The ushers and greeters who made the many visitors feel special; and, last but never least;

• Reverend Mary and Father Keith who led us all in meaningful worship. 

Welcome Baby!
