CHRISTIAN FORMATION
ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL ~ 9:30 AM
Summer Adult Education Class —
Rabbi Harold Kushner’s book,
The Book of Job: When Bad Things Happened to a Good Person
, is the text for a summer study to be facilitated by Dick Hooper and David Starling. Pain and suffering by the righteous seems unfair. So, what is God’s relationship to such events and how are the righteous to respond? These are some issues which will be discussed through this study. The group will meet in the Parlor each Sunday morning, 9:30-10:15 AM, through August 11. A few extra books have been ordered and are available for $10. For more information, contact David Starling by text or phone at (850) 712-0977 or email at
dastarling@cox.net
.
This class will be held in the Parlor. Led by Dick Hooper and David Starling.
Sunday Centering Prayer Group —
Centering Prayer is a method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, in which we experience God's presence within us. We begin by taking a few minutes to go over the basic guidelines of the practice for anyone who is new. We then sit together in the 20-minute prayer period, followed by a brief time for sharing and intercessory prayer. All are welcome — newcomers and experienced practitioners.
This class meets in the Centering Prayer room on the administrative hallway.The facilitator is Joan White.
NURSERY ~ 7:45 AM - 12:00 PM
Infants - 2 yrs. old — Nursery, first floor of the Christian Ed Bldg.
Infants — Rm. 24, first floor of the Christian Ed. Bldg.
Preschool Toddlers — Ages 2 & 3 — Rm. 21, first floor of the Christian Ed. Bldg.
Bible lessons are provided each week during the 10:30 service.

REMEMBER MANNA THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER!
Even though it is summer and many of us are in vacation mode, there are still less fortunate people who are hungry and homeless. Please remember to put Manna on your grocery list every week. There are lots of children home from school this summer who need to eat, so do your part to help them out!

HEARING LOOP
Christ Church has a hearing loop system f
or hearing-impaired individuals who wear hearing aids with activated telecoils (or T-coils)
. Users should turn their hearing aid to the setting marked "T". This will allow your hearing aid to act like a speaker directly connected to the church’s sound system. After the service has ended, you should turn off the "T" setting. Background: A telecoil (or T-coil) is a small coil of wire inside a hearing aid that is designed to pick up a magnetic signal. When using the telecoil setting on your hearing aid it turns off the microphone so that it will only pick up the electromagnetic signal and convert it to sound. This allows you to hear only the magnetic signal from the hearing loop system. Ask your audiologist or hearing health care provider about telecoils and if it is right for you.
