Children are always welcome at all of our church services--in person and online. On Sunday mornings, we offer Children's Chapel on Zoom at 9:30 am and Children's Chapel in person at 10:00 am. On Zoom, we share in a short, interactive Liturgy of the Word, supported by enrichment materials shared below. In person, we safely gather for Children's Chapel in the Parish Hall which accomodates social distancing both during the Liturgy of the Word and enrichment activities. All leaders are vaccinated and masked. Participating children and parents are also masked. We bring children upstairs at the Announcements, at about 10:35. Parents are welcome to pick up their child(ren) in the Parish Hall as well.

This Sunday, we will learn more about King Solomon who is remembered for building the Temple and for his prayerful dedication of it to God. We will take a tour of our Godly Play miniature model of the Temple, paying close attention to the candles, table of bread, and altar. We are reminded of the importance of sacred space even as we know that God is with us everywhere. Whether at home or at church, children will be encouraged to use plastic brick sets and wooden blocks to build a place for praising, petitioning, blessing and thanking God. In person, we will use individual sets of building bricks and blocks.

Rebuilding Together Project Day is back and Christ Church will again be helping a community member make their home a safe place to live. No experience is needed, just a willingness to make a difference in an elderly homeowner’s life.

Beginning the first week of September Christ Church is offering an adult and youth inquirers course for an opportunity to reflect on your spiritual journey. This course is designed for adults and youth interested in learning more about Episcopal traditions and how they can inform and transform your and faith. This course is also for anyone considering adult or youth baptism or confirmation.

The fall confirmation service is on November 13^th at the Washington National Cathedral. 

The adults will be using Rev. Jenifer Gamber's book, Your Life, Your Faith: Invitation to the Episcopal Church,  and the youth will use her book, My Faith, My Life: Revised Edition: A Teen's Guide to the Episcopal Church. 

Please reach out to Rev. Emily Guthrie, emily@ccpk.org, or Lee Puricelli (leepuricelli@yahoo.com) with any questions, your interest in the course, and with the days and times that work best for you- we look forward to hearing from you! (The Rev. Hope Christensen is on a well-deserved vacation this week!)
