Anglican Church Women (ACW)
The first ACW group at St. Pauls dates back to the early 1900’s. Throughout the years, the ACW has been an important part of many outreach projects. Meeting once a month, members took part in prayers, discussions, had a few laughs and organized rummage sales, bake sales and other fundraising efforts. Currently, the group consists of a small number of members who meet once a month for lunch and conversation. We would love to have you join us. Interested? Have questions?

Altar Guild
The members of the Altar Guild assist in preparing for worship: setting out communion vessels, cleaning and polishing the silver and brass, changing altar hangings according to the season or holy day and laundering and ironing altar linens. We work on a rotation schedule, typically once every five weeks. We find it a very peaceful, creative, and rewarding contribution to the worship services. New members are always welcome. Interested?

Prayer Chain
The Prayer Chain is a group of individuals praying for those on our Sunday prayer list and others who we have been asked to pray for. There is also the option that if requested, names on the prayer list remain confidential. Interested? Have questions? Contact us at stpaulsuxbridge@yahoo.ca
