Letter from Interim Rector
Read a letter from the Rev. Ray Hanna regarding suspension of services and activities at St. Paul’s, here.
Notice of Building Closure
The physical building of our church is closed. Sikes Cleaning has been deep cleaning certain areas in the past week or so and we need to keep those areas clean and untouched as much as we can. Please do not enter any part of the church building without the Rector’s knowledge and approval.
Fr. Ray can be reached at 336-745-5950 or rjhanna14@yahoo.com. He prefers this email address while we fix a glitch in the church email address. Thanks for your cooperation as we fight diligently to curb the spread of this virus.
