Dear Parishioners and Friends of St. Paul’s,

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our new priest and spiritual leader Rev. Dr. Nathaniel (“Nate”) Jung-Chul Lee (Fr. Nate Lee).  Father Nate comes to us with 20 years of extensive pastoral and administrative experience at well-established churches. He joins us with his two boys Ezekiel (“Zeke”) and Malachi (“Chai”). Father Nate’s bio is included in this letter (below).

Father Nate’s credentials are extensive, and he describes himself as a “scholar priest.” We are humbled and honored to have him join us at St. Paul’s, and we ask the Lord to knit us together in close fellowship.

For the past 14 months, we have sought to stand in the council of the Lord, watch and wait upon Him, and allow Him to prepare us, His people, for that which He has planned for us in this new season. We have done this together prayerfully (thank you), and our heavenly Father is pleased. This is a unique and holy time for our parish, and a new chapter has now begun.

Father Nate will begin his ministry at St. Paul’s on Sunday, October 20, preaching and celebrating at our 8 AM and 10:30 AM services. Receptions will follow each service. Please join us to celebrate and welcome Father Nate to St. Paul’s.

We want to thank our ministry and committee leaders, and all who have faithfully served to provide a seamless web of services at our parish in this past year. And we thank our heavenly Father for His tender loving care and guidance in this transition.

Sincerely, In Christ’s Love,

Lois Hunt and George Stowell
