Honoring the Rev. Mary Luck Stanley

As many of you may know, our beloved co-rector, Reverend Mary Luck Stanley, will be retiring on May 19th after 18 devoted years at Old St. Paul’s and 27 years of heartfelt service within the Episcopal Church. To honor her remarkable journey and the profound impact she has had on our community, we are gathering a special “purse” — a traditional Episcopal token of appreciation for retiring clergy. This purse represents a collective offering from our congregation, an expression of our gratitude and affection.

 

Mary has been the embodiment of warmth, inclusivity, empathy, and love, dedicating her ministry to nurturing the beloved community here at Old St. Paul’s. Her presence has been a blessing to us all, inspiring and comforting many along our own spiritual journeys.

 

We invite you to join us contributing to this purse as a symbol of our collective appreciation. Your generosity will not only reflect the love and respect we hold for  Mary but also support her in her new chapter of life.
