PADS: Public Action To Deliver Shelter

The local PADS sites throughout the Village and surrounding suburbs are now opened. Each night, our homeless sisters and brothers find their way to these sites and are afforded a warm, safe and clean place to eat, clean up and rest. These wonderful places need help: if there is anyone interested in sharing their time or material to this worthwhile ministry, please contact Laura Lampe, Vince Ortero, or contact the Village Hall for additional information.

“For I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me drink; I was a stranger and you made me welcome; naked and you clothed me, sick and you visited me… — Matthew. 25: 34-35″

Christmas Traditions Video Project Beginning November 4: Kids Of All Ages Can Appear

Collection of St Nicholas and Santa Claus figures from parishioners

In a little over a month, Advent begins and we will celebrate the Feast of St Nicholas. Soon after that, it’s Christmas!

The next two months are the most wonderful time of the year at St Nicholas Episcopal Church – there’s so much going on. Right now you have the opportunity to help spread the word about Christmas and St Nicholas.

You (and any family members) are invited to share your Christmas traditions with everyone in the St Nicholas Community in a video interview to be posted on the church website and online.

Beginning after church on November 4, anyone interested in this project should see Carol Payne after the 10am service to record a short interview.

No special skill is necessary! All you have to do is answer 2 easy questions:

  1. What are your Christmas traditions?
  2. What would you like for Christmas?

Anyone and everyone can be involved. The video will be posted on the church video page and online during Advent.
