The student group Fides  is cancelled this Sunday.

 The raffle sale at the parish party brought in kr. 7,710 for Caritas. Thank you to everyone who contributed. Caritas Bergen works on behalf of St Paul parish to help people in our town who are excluded or marginalised. We have a great need for voluntary workers.
