First Anniversary - Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda in the Philippines

On November 8, 2013 the Philippines was hit by a devastating typhoon Haiyan also called Yolanda. Over 6,000 people died and many lost their homes. The government was slow in responding to people's needs and much of the help came from grassroots organizations and communities inside and outside of the Philippines. Many of us here in the U.S. came together to help our family and friends back home in the Philippines. Our efforts are certainly powerful, but much work need to continue in order to build a sustainable Philippines. 

Join many Filipinos on Saturday, November 8th and commemorate those we lost, those who survived, and efforts made to help the Philippines. 

First Action: 

Community Forum at San Damiano Hall
of the Roman Catholic Church of St. Francis of Assisi 
127 West 31 Street New York, NY
Time: 3 to 5 pm

Second Action: 

Ecumenical Prayer Vigil at Times Square
46th Street Between Broadway and 7th Ave
Time: 5:45 pm

If you can't be with us, kindly remember the dead and survivors at your Eucharist on Sunday.

Thank you,

We at St. Paul’s are striving to guide every person into a living relationship with God in Jesus Christ and to love and serve all persons.

St. Paul’s has a wonderful history, a dynamic present, and a bright future ahead. Our present is filled with activities, and also its own set of struggles and challenges that enable us to learn to survive and grow together. 

We are looking forward to a future developing our resources and investing ourselves in the mission of serving our members and our community.
