Welcome to the blog!

To the St Paul Community:

Welcome to our new blog experiment! The goal here is to give all members of the community a chance to connect on matters large and small, so we can hear All Our Voices. Anyone can submit short notes, articles, pictures, or video links (youtube) to post.

Why a blog? Because lots of people have reflections or experiences that they'd like to share. What's happening around you lately? Tell us about a recent event in your life. Or, tell us what's happening around the Cathedral community. Did you attend Theology on Tap? visit Dorcas House? Did you march in Pride? Do you have something on your mind you'd like to discuss with everyone? Or a reflection? Maybe you'd like to point out an article or a blog post elsewhere. Humor is as welcome as serious reflection, we want the light-hearted vignettes as well as profound thoughts. Regardless of what you have to say, here's the place for it!

It's simple. Paste your item in the body of an email and send it to StPaulBLog@gmail.com. That is the blog moderators' address. (You can also email Chris Harris directly). Make sure to indicate quotations and any URLs (internet links). Avoid any fancy formating (italics, bold, changes in font). We would like to include a picture of the author, so if you can, please include a small photo. Make sure to sign it so we know who it's from! We will post your name, but not your email address.

Posts will be put in a queue as received and spread out. If your post has a particular time value, for example, an announcement of an upcoming event, please be sure to let us know so we can get it posted in time.

We encourage you to make comments on any posts that interest you. The commenting function is open to anyone (click "comments" at the bottom of each post.) However, the moderators will delete any comments that are rude or otherwise inappropriate, at our discretion. We also ask that you sign your comments.

If you are a facebook or twitter user, you may want to cross post. And, if you see a post you like here, be sure to tweet it or link it from facebook.

That's it! Let's start blogging!
