This cache has been archived.

GrandpaGene: After a ten year run, this cache has come up missing. It's sad that St. Paul's has also had to lock its doors after more than 100 years

Geocache Description:

Off I 664 take the 35th Street exit and go one block and turn left. Do not take the first left as the church sits on a one way street. Park anywhere along the street or turn left again and park in the church parking lot. Watch out for muggles, both on the street and possible homeless muggles. This cache is placed with the permission of the rector and vestry of St. Paul's.

St. Paul's is an old church with the cornerstone reading 1883. In the past it has helped railroad workers, soldiers going to and from war, and many others. It now ministers to the homeless, many of whom are active parishoners. My wife Mickie worshiped here for several years and was very active in helping with the homeless as well as playing the piano and organ. For at least two Thanksgivings she drafted me to carve the turkeys. While the homeless only come to the vicinity of the church at lunchtime and for services,and are rarely in the area of the cache itself, please be very careful if any are in the vicinity of GZ. Please do NOT seek this cache during service hours (Sunday morning) BYOP
