Join us at 9 a.m. or 11 a.m.* this Sunday for our annual Backpack Blessing ahead of the start of the 2022-2023 school year! Kiddos and grown-ups alike are welcome to come forward with their backpack or work bag for a special blessing and bag tag from your CC+WP family. 

We hope to see you at whatever service fits your schedule this weekend! 

*11 a.m. service also live-streamed. By entering the church at 11 a.m., you consent to being filmed, as well as its release as desired by CC+WP. More information linked below.

Additional worship information & livestream links here.

Kids of all ages are joyfully welcomed at CC+WP during both services. We also offer Children's Chapel at 9 a.m., and nursery care for our younger children during both Sunday services.

In addition, please register for Sunday School! This year's program will feature our new Godly Play curriculum and promises to be both fun and educational.  Tours of the space September 11, and class begins September 18!

Please offer thanks to Georgianna Askoff, who will be playing the organ for the final week this Sunday. We so appreciate her stepping in while Richard was away!

Join us this Sunday, August 28 at 12:30 p.m. in the conference room (or via Zoom) to discuss options for changes to the Outreach Committee structure, and decisions regarding the remaining allocations from our 2022 budget. Materials will be available in advance in the Outreach nook in the safe room, or via email by request to Jean Denton.

At CC+WP, all are truly welcome. Ahead of our New Member Welcome on September 11, we would love to record your connection to us officially, as it helps with Diocesan resources and best captures our thriving community. Whether you're baptized or not, of another faith or none at all, we would love to have you. More on how we view membership here, but if you're read to become official, please fill this out!

The film group is off through Labor Day, but join us when we return on September 9. Stay tuned for film titles! Contact Paul Laymon with questions, or simply join via Zoom on the 9th. 

Please consider making a meal for the Ring Family - Mariwyn, Jonathan, Nolan & Asher. With Mariwyn out of commission for 6 weeks following back surgery, the family would welcome any meals the congregation would be willing to provide! Additionally, should any parents with small kiddos want to bring her sons to the playground at 9th and Penn, simply send her a text!

If you're called to help provide respite care for arriving migrants, please sign up to serve at Capitol Hill United Methodist Church on Thursdays (sign up through October); or Washington City Church of the Brethren on Sundays (sign up through September.) In addition, the faith communities are seeking the replenishment of items most in need, specifically: small personal care products; duffels or backpacks; new socks & undergarments for men and women (S/M); new or used athletic shoes(M/W sized 6-8); men's jeans (waist 26-34/in 28-32); and men's t-shirts (S/M). Use the basket and blue bin in the outreach nook for donations - we will drop off weekly. THANK YOU!

Just two more weeks to bring in water for Shirley's place. Let's get enough on hand to get our homeless neighbors through the usually hot September weather in D.C. Thank you for your generosity!
