From the Pastor: Director of Religious Education at St. Paul

After 40 years of service to our school and parish, Carey Parker retired on July 1. We wish her health and happiness as she begins this next phase of her life. We are not able to do a proper send off at this time due to the pandemic, but when we are able to socialize again we will host a retirement party to celebrate Carey's years of dedication to St. Paul Parish. In the meantime, please send Carey your best wishes to her home address:

Carey Parker

2228 Markham Court
Lexington, KY 40504

Also, if you would like to share a memory or story about Carey (I know there has to be a lot of funny stories to tell), please send them to  saintpaul@cdlex.org to be published in our online bulletin. As Carey just told me, St. Paul has “a very special place in my life and my heart.” And indeed, Carey has a very special place in our hearts. Carey, thank you for all you have done for our parish and we send you our prayers and blessings.

As of July 1, we welcome Deacon Ramon Alfaro has our new Director of Religious Education. Over the years he has ministered faithfully to the people of St. Paul and has been a tremendous asset to me since I arrived in January. I know that Deacon Ramon’s new ministry at St. Paul will be a blessing to all of us.

Fr. Richard Watson
Pastor
