Following the Pictou County Council of Churches prayer roster, please hold in your prayers Rev. Doug Pilsworth and the congregation of St Paul’s

United Church, Westville.

The small candle on the Communion Table is our “Peace Candle.” It shines to remind us

that as Christians we are called to pray and work for peace.

Seeking to be a welcoming & caring faith community, we strive to be

scent-free and encourage the use of fragrant-free personal care products.

An usher-assisted elevator is available at MacLean St. entrance.

The system to assist hearing impaired persons may be accessed

by turning hearing aids to the “T” setting.

An Unsupervised Nursery for babies and toddlers is provided in the Mary Walsh Room.
