Stewardship Semi-Annual Clean-Up Day
The stewardship committee is happy to announce our semi-annual clean-up day.  On Saturday, October 30, 2021, from 9-12, we will work outside. Please join us for 30 minutes of conversation for every 10 to 15 minutes of work. 
Want Information on Your Pledge?
If you'd like to know where you stand on your pledge and other giving to CHPC, send a note to Jack Marcum, Acting Treasurer (treasurer@crescenthill.church). Due to the transition on the treasurer's position, quarterly statements are not being mailed out. Jack will respond personally to any queries.
Camp Scholarships
Nurture Council has decided to distribute the funds designated to help offset the cost of summer church camps for children associated with CHPC. Normally we ask beforehand and send the funds directly to the camp. Due to many factors, we were unable to do that in 2021. If you have receipts from summer church camp for your children, please forward a copy to Todd Rogers (btoddr@gmail.com) for review. Funds are limited and will only reimburse you for a portion of your fees.

Any questions, please email Todd or call him at 502-439-6008.
Re-Opening Committee
Our Re-Opening Committee continues to meet and evaluate our health and safety guidelines during Covid. They are currently considering requests from church and community groups to resume activities and plan events. Please contact Alan Pauw at adpauw@bellsouth.net if you have a question or a request. The next meeting will be on October 28th.

Seeking the Shalom of the City Workshop
I ask that you please consider attending the racial justice workshop that Spirit of Sophia is offering beginning November 2nd - "Seeking the Shalom of the City" Revisiting and Re-visioning Louisville" with teacher/activist Cory Lockhart. Please attend one or all of the five sessions - for they will stand on their own.

Grant funding allows us to offer this workshop free of tuition. We are asking for a $15 registration fee - but this is NOT required. Please fill out the registration/waiver form on the website, and no need to pay this fee.

I know this will be an informative, educational opportunity - and I hope members of CHPC will join us. We want our grant funders to know many women experienced this opportunity for learning.
