We would like to celebrate the Class of 2021 and our Christ Church seniors! Please see the information needed to have your senior included under the Episcopal Youth Community News below & return to Britton by Sunday, April 25!

After a joyous Easter celebration in Shelley’s Space, we will return to the Parish Hall this Sunday and continue our stories about Jesus and his teachings. When Jesus had his last meal with his disciples, he held up a piece of bread and broke it. He picked up a cup of wine and thanked God for it. He then gave us the words for our Holy Eucharist which we celebrate in church each Sunday. We will review the circle of the Holy Eucharist Sunday and enact this crucial part of our worship. Each element of the service will be explained and we will have wine (grape juice) and bread (flat bread broken in pieces). This is always one of the most beloved stories of children so please sign your children up early. Please sign children up here (max 20 children).

For those who are with us on Zoom, Britton Lynn and Rudy will be with you to tell a story — these sessions begin at 9:30 AM. The meeting ID is 3205228708. Britton will let you in through the waiting room.

Co-chaired by Father Michael, Christ Church is an active participant in the local J.U.S.T. Pensacola (Justice United Seeking Transformation in Pensacola) organization. As in 2020, Christ Church members, along with those from 23 other congregations, will attend a Nehemiah Action meeting via Zoom on Monday, May 3 to share with local leaders our concerns and to offer suggestions for improvement. There is power in numbers! Leaders do listen!  

The process started with a number of small group meetings to determine the most critical issues on which to work this year, followed by committees researching solutions. The Nehemiah Action Assembly is the culmination of the annual process to present strategies and make requests to community leaders. This year J.U.S.T Pensacola members have been focusing on the large number of arrests and incarceration of teens and the lack of affordable housing. There are over 30 J.U.S.T. Pensacola Network Members of Christ Church who will be inviting parishioners to join this Zoom event. You don’t need to wait for a call; if you are interested in attending, please contact Honey Harris.

Each year, faith-based communities from Escambia and Santa Rosa counties come together during a week in May to build a home for a local family. All are welcome to join us in putting God’s love into action. Together, we can demonstrate the love of God and be advocates for affordable housing. Everyone can help, small or large groups, along with any religion or denomination, by contributing their time and resources. Build Dates: Saturday May 8, and Tuesday, May 11 through Saturday, May 15, 2021 (You select a day to serve.) To sign up go to faithbuild.pensacolahabitat.org and click the ‘Join Faith Build’ button. After participants sign up on that website, Honey Harris will then reach out via email to schedule their build day.

Each week our worship service is enhanced with beautiful fresh flowers. The altar flowers are a memorial, a thanksgiving for an anniversary, a birthday, a new birth, or a thanksgiving for God's blessings. The donation is listed in the weekly bulletin. Forms to participate in this ministry are available here.

Christ Church is here for you. There are many ministries to love and support the people who are the church. We continue to support one another, especially during this pandemic. If you are interested in assisting with staying connected to our church family, please email Rev. Katie or call her at the Parish Office, 850-432-5115. It is easy to feel alone or disconnected right now, so reach out to one of the priests or someone at the church to say hello. Contact Rev. Katie if you or anyone you know has any needs. If you have a pastoral emergency, please call our pastoral care emergency line to speak directly with one of the priests: (850) 462-5137.
