Calling On All Servants in Christ!! Time and Talent, not just Treasure…
If you would like to know more about the ways in which we serve our communities and one another then please come and join in our worship and learn about the specific ministries we have at our beloved Christ Episcopal Church.
From April 24th through May 22nd, we are learning ways in which we can spread hope and love and we are inviting everyone to participate in our 2022 Time and Talent Campaign by letting us know the ways in which you currently serve and ways in which you think God is calling you to serve in 2022.
Please fill out the 2022 Time and Talent Survey Form and let us know! We also want you to share with us ways in which you serve outside of CEC, in sports as coaches, as school volunteers, and in your community. On May 22nd, we will gather and celebrate our callings, and commission our ministries.
So please pray, seek, and fill out the form!!

COMMUNITY, CONVERSATION AND COOKIES |
|
After a wonderful Holy Week and Easter Sunday, we at Christ Episcopal Church continue to stay busy and active in our Worship of God and celebration of our community. On Sunday, May 15, Bishop Hector Monterroso will be visiting our church. He will be conducting Confirmations as a part of the services that day. Following the service our Community, Conversation and Cookies event will expand to a Reception for the Confirmands and those Received into the church. If you would like to assist with the planning and/or hosting of that event please contact Tom Foster, Bobbie Walstrom, Sherrie Hill, or Linda Dozier. |

The Community, Conversation and Cookies ministry is going well, and we thank you for your support each Sunday after services. We are asking for donations of cookies at any time. Just place them on the top shelf of the freezer or if you bring them of a Sunday leave them on the counter. Please place them in a bag marked CCC and the date. The idea is to always have a supply of cookies on hand. In addition, you are invited to sign up to act as host for a Sunday. We have made it easy. All that is needed is for you to arrive a little early, fill the thermoses with coffee, get the lemonade and water from the fridge, plate the cookies from the “stash” (or ones you brought, if that is what you prefer to do) and roll out the carts. Then after church you greet people and enjoy each other’s company. Clean up is quick and easy. This would be a great way to honor a person’s birthday, an anniversary or any other event that is special to you. It could also be done by a group, family or a ministry.
We invite you all to attend every Sunday and especially on May 15 and hope to hear from some who want to host. See you on the lawn.

We are scheduled for a bishop's visit on May 15. Confirmation classes are being held Sundays at 9:00 a.m. in the Parish Hall.
Confirmation is for any youth or adult who has not been confirmed, or was confirmed in another denomination and would like to be received into the Episcopal Church, or any confirmed Episcopalian who would like to reaffirm their baptism before the bishop. Youth and adults will begin together in the Parish Hall, and then separate for age-specific activities. Confirmation classes will also serve as the Adult Sunday School for all adults. All are welcome!

Our next monthly workshop, using a video curriculum from The Episcopal Church, will be on May 4 in the library. These workshops will be held twice on the same day, 10:30 a.m. & 6:30 p.m., to accommodate traditional work schedules and those who do not want to drive at night. Come and learn ways to reflect and see the good news of God’s movement in your life. |
