Dear Congregation,
Pre-holiday greetings to you as we approach Independence Day 2023!
CCC’s Ministry of Mission and Outreach will be doing a new thing in two
local communities on Tuesday, July 4 th to help our neighbors become
better acquainted with our church. We’ll debut our new tent/booth,
banners, table and table covers, first at the Cutler Bay/Whispering
Pines event, 8800 Ridgeland Drive, where we’ll be from 9 a.m. until
noon. Then our booth will be moved to the Palmetto Bay Independence
Day Celebration at the Village Hall, 9705 East Hibiscus Street, Palmetto
Bay, where we’ll be from 6-9 p.m. prior to the fireworks display.
At each event we’ll share giveaways such as pens, chip clips, and fans
with the church’s contact information, as well as CCC brochures.
There will also be a Christmas in July flier to hand out, inviting people
to come be part of two future opportunities for community interaction.
The first is a Moonlight Drum Circle in our Garden Chapel on
Wednesday, September 27th at 7 p.m. The second is a Community Choir
that will be formed here in the church Sanctuary beginning on
Wednesday, October 17 th at 7 p.m. Weekly rehearsals will follow, with
the goal of offering a free Christmas concert at CCC on Sunday,
December 10th at 2 p.m. to benefit a good cause.
Plan to stop by if you’re at either event to say “hi” and show your
support. We are doing a new thing in our commitment to let the
community know WE ARE HERE! Thanks to Karen Kett, Bianca
Montenegro, and Miriam Grissett for their work to make this happen!
Blessing on your celebrations. See you in church on Sunday!
In Christ’s love,
Pastor Candy
