Outreach -
St. Paul's Episcopal Church
His Table
St. Paul's is participating in a program begun by Romeo Methodist
Church to help feed people in need, for whatever reason. We provided our
first meal Nov. 30th and had a great time. Our stuffed pepper casserole
was a big hit. "His Table" provides meals each Tuesday night beginning
at 5:30 p.m.
Samaritan House St. Paul's links with other area congregations to
serve Samaritan House, which offers food and other aid to
families who are struggling with economic and health issues. We
participate in picking up blankets from Focus Hope and deliver them to
Samaritan House for those who need extra help keeping warm. We
participate in Share Tree another Samaritan House project. People provide Christmas gifts for those who need
help giving their family a happy Christmas
Harvest Walk
St. Paul's members continue to walk and raise money for our local food
pantry. We walk with other churches and volunteers from all over
the Romeo Washington area.
Michigan Parkinson Foundation
This year we would like to support Pat
Clinton and his family as they do the walk-a-thon to raise money for
research in Parkinson's disease.
Second Mile Center in Detroit
This center was started under the auspices of the Presbyterian Women's
Society. The program is run by an amazing woman, Ruth Azur. The center
provides a safe place for children of many ages to go after school. Ruth
holds church services for the youth. There is a computer center and a
game room and dinner and snacks are avilable for the youth and their
families.

In April the Men's Club of St. Paul's
cooked a wonderful mastachioli dinner with salad. John Contoni made 200
cookies for desert. The Episcopal Church Women of St. Paul's helped
served dinner. A couple of our folks joined other volunteers in helping
with the summer health fair at Second Mile Center. You can check out some more photos
and a video on our "St. Paul's Episcopal Romeo" Facebook page (See
