The Stitchers of Love are now meeting twice a month on the first and third Sundays in the Parish Hall from 4 to 6 p.m. All are welcome. We will teach anyone who is interested in learning to knit or crochet. The next meeting is July 17th.

We will gather at Georgia Beer Company, 109 S Briggs St, Valdosta, GA, this Thursday at 7 pm in the pump house for Pub Night. Our topic--The Use and Abuse of the Bible in the Church. Feel free to bring a Bible along with you. And, feel free to invite a non-Christ Church friend or relative. We're in a relaxed atmosphere with no "lesson" to be taught, just questions to be pursued.

You soon will be receiving summary reports of the Holy Conversations and the Holy Cow Survey. If you do not get email, copies will be in the narthex by July 24th. We will meet after the 10 am service in parish hall for brunch and discussion of these two reports on July 31st. The noon service will not meet that day to give us ample time.

Caritas Sing-a-long will be held on Sunday, July 31, 2022 beginning at 4:00 p.m. at the home of Gary and Nancy located at 4738 Layla Lane, Hahira. We will have a number of guitarists on hand to help lead us. Please bring a snack to share and join in the fun. All are welcome!
