Mission
The Episcopal Church Women of St. Paul's meet on the first Saturday of
each month at 10 AM in the Guild Hall unless otherwise specified. By
virtue of Baptism, all women of the Episcopal Church are members of the
ECW. Therefore, membership in our local Chapter is open to all the women
of St. Paul's congregation.
The ECW, among other activities, sponsors Coffee Hour Receptions for major
events throughout the year as well as arranging for hosts for the weekly
coffee hours. This year we hosted the reception for the Commissioning of
Jamie Hovland and will be planning for the visit of Bishop Anderson in
June and Homecoming Sunday in September. We also have a semi annual
Opportunity Drawing and Bake Sale in April (or March depending on the date
of Easter) and November. We also prepare receptions following funerals
when requested as well as any other events when called upon.
Our monthly meetings feature speakers, luncheons, and "angel
workshops". The angels are a yearly project of the ECW to raise money
to meet our annual pledge to the work of St. Paul's. This year we are
directing our efforts to the support of the Youth Ministry. We are also
endorsing a toy drive to assist the Santa's' Workers of the Antelope
Valley in their project of providing toys for needy children in the area
(this includes the entire Antelope Valley and Edwards Air Force Base).
