Congregations Committee Meeting
November 17, 2020
Below is a screen shot of our Congregations Committee meeting last night via Zoom. The Committee planned our Annual Meeting and discuss other programmatic matters. We are so thankful for being able to connect in this way. It is always so wonderful to be able to check in with everyone. It brings a sense of closeness in these times where we have to keep separate. So thankful for everyone!

Order your Cathedral Yard Sign Today!
Our signs are already in some homes in Hartford and West Hartford!
Since you are not able to visit 45 Church Street, our Cathedral could visit you in some ways! We have made a replica of our fence sign and are making it available to those who would like to share God’s love with your neighborhood.
The sign, portraying our Presiding Bishop and noting our Cathedral ‘s website shares a well-known message from Bishop Curry “ Love is the Way” . In a time when we are facing two pandemics, Covid-19 and Racism, love is the only way forward.
Would you like a sign? Canon Jorge and I are ready to drop it off, place it in your front yard and wave hello to you and yours! Please email me at lina.howell@cccathedral.org or call at 860-305-7604. We are asking for a good will donation of $ 17.00 per sign to cover its cost. Please mail your checks payable to Christ Church Cathedral or donate online visiting our website at www.cccathedral.org

A MESSAGE FROM OUR MUSIC DEPARTMENT
Our musicians have been hard at work creating virtual music for our Sunday worship services. Singing and playing together on our music videos, it almost feels like we are back in the Cathedral building!
Please, considering wearing headphones while listening to our CCC music offerings, particularly those involving singers and guest musicians. Their remarkable efforts are much better experienced this way. Thank you!

CHURCH STREET EATS
By Theresa Greaves, CSE Co-Convener
|
|
November 15, 2020
Church Street Eats served 70 bagged lunch meals. This week we were joined by members of the Three Angles Seventh Day Adventist group. They came in to make tuna fish sandwiches and fill the bags for distribution. Before hand Heather Jordan-Greaves assembled the turkey sandwiches. Lunch this week included a Jackie & Max pasta casserole and Louis's special hot chocolate. More people took advantage of our limited seating dining room this week, as expected with the dropping temperatures. We had hand sanitizer and disposable masks available for those who needed. Many of our guests are looking forward to Mother Rose's Boutique-Patio Edition this weekend.

CHURCH BY THE POND
By Nancy Jacobs, Lay Coordinator
|
|
November 14, 2020
Father Taylor Albright led our Church By The Pond congregation on Saturday afternoon in Bushnell Park. Twenty-one of our community gathered in prayer this afternoon. Father Taylor's reflection on today's Gospel reading was a message to build up the kingdom of heaven using the gifts God has given us whether those gifts are small or great.
Our readings and prayers included prayers for those exposed to or suffering from Cor0navirus including Connecticut's governor. We prayed for the safety of our community and the world. We prayed for unity and peace, for protection from the cold, and for all suffering.
Trinity Episcopal Church, Tariffville prepared and provided lunches for the 33 guests present following our service.

Christ Church Cathedral serves the entire Episcopal Church in Connecticut community for the good of the whole, and is the seat of the bishops. It is "our cathedral." Our Cathedral hosts four congregations in one worshiping community. It's not a parish, as its role is unique in the diocese (see 2015 task force report & resolution). In this its centennial year, Cathedral leaders and Centennial Committee members wish to remind all Episcopalians in CT that by virtue of their membership in a parish, they are members of our Cathedral. All are welcome at any time, and in particular, invited to these events .
