New - Adult Ministry Library Hours 
  

Small group leaders, 10:25 leaders, Bible Study leaders, and those who are considering leading a group for adults are invited to stop by the Library and chat with me on April 6 in between worship services. I'll have a sampling of resources that you can use with your group and would love to check-in with you and see how things are going, etc. If you can't make it this month, no worries! I'll be doing this on a regular basis and am also always available to chat. - Rebecca Guzman

Easter Flower Dedications 

 

The flowers that adorn our worship space are an important symbol of our love for the Lord and the praise we offer Him during worship.

 

Again this Easter, we are inviting everyone to dedicate flowers to the glory of God and in memory, thanksgiving, or celebration of people or events that are important to you. Making a flower dedication is a meaningful way to mark these special times in our lives and share these hopes and remembrances with our church family.

 

 Complete your dedication and pay online or use the form included in this weekend's bulletin. 
"My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."
- John 15:12

 

Thanks to hundreds of volunteers, Christ Church was able to provide shelter for 41+ women this week. This included 7 dinners, 280 lunches, 50+ pots of coffee, dentists, dentist drivers, 60 loads of laundry, haircuts, 14 overnight hosts, sewing, daily set up & clean up, hundreds of donated food & supply items, and lots more!  

 

From all of this, our guests felt our love and support. Thank you to each and every one who has helped in some large or small way. Please keep CARITAS and our women friends in your prayers.
