Throughout the fall, we will use the Bible Project to lead us as we dig deeper into God’s Word. Each week, we will read a book of the New Testament. Click here for the readings and links.

As Fr. Michael has discussed, we are all excited to be making a return towards normal worship services. With that in mind, please take a look at the link here that details some of the ways to serve in helping with those services. If you are interested in any of these ministries, please sign up and we will follow up with more details!

Our neighbors without homes are in great need of bug spray, new or used summer clothes (especially men’s), toiletries including bars of soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, disposable razors, hand sanitizer, wash cloths, socks, and hand cream. Donations can be left in the boxes labeled 'Bridging the Gap' in the back hallway of the church offices. Please click here for more information on how to help.

If you are in need of prayer on your behalf, publicly or confidentially (known only by the clergy and the intercessory prayer ministry), please fill out one of the prayer request cards in the pews, the prayer request form on our website, or email prayer-request@christ-church.net with a note on whether it is public or confidential.

As you grow in your prayer life, if you feel God calling you to intercede for the needs of others, begin by praying the list of names printed in the Chronicle each week. As you continue to discern, we invite you to be part of our small group by signing up [Circle of Care Ministry Signup] to learn more or contacting Rev. Katie.

We will begin the 2021-2022 Sunday School year in our newly refurbished Christian Education building rooms. New carpet, bright new paint, and rooms cleaned and organized from top to bottom will provide a welcoming space for our children. Please bring your children to the Parish Hall and adults will walk with them to their rooms upstairs in the Christian Ed building. Parents can pick their children up after the 10:30 service in the Parish Hall.

Note: Three year olds and younger will go to the nursery located on the first floor of the Christian Education building. Adults will be available to help you find this room. Children in nursery care may be picked up from the nursery on the first floor of the Christian Education building.

Henri Nouwen takes one on a wonderful spiritual journey in his book The Return of the Prodigal Son.  Beginning this Sunday, participants will have an opportunity to contemplate his insights about Jesus’ parable and how a painting of Rembrandt inspired this book. The Prologue and Introduction (pages 1-23) will be the focus of discussion. Class begins at 9:15 AM in Room 31 upstairs in the Christian Education building and will be facilitated by Dick Hooper and David Starling.

Each week our worship service is enhanced with beautiful fresh flowers. After the Sunday services, the altar flower arrangements are reworked into smaller arrangements. These arrangements are delivered to members of our parish family that are unable to attend a Sunday service. The altar flowers are a memorial, a thanksgiving for an anniversary, a birthday, a new birth, or a thanksgiving for God's blessings. The donation is listed in the weekly bulletin. Forms to participate in this ministry are available here and on the information table in the Parish Office.

Christ Church is here for you. There are many ministries to love and support the people who are the church. We continue to support one another, especially during this pandemic. If you are interested in assisting with staying connected to our church family, please email Rev. Katie or call her at the Parish Office, 850-432-5115. It is easy to feel alone or disconnected right now, so reach out to one of the priests or someone at the church to say hello. Contact Rev. Katie if you or anyone you know has any needs. If you have a pastoral emergency, please call our pastoral care emergency line to speak directly with one of the priests: (850) 462-5137.

We would like to give thanks for these special days and to add your name to the published prayer list in the Chronicle. Please print your name on the calendar on the information table in the Parish Office foyer. The calendar is checked weekly before the prayer list goes to print.
