Dear Parishioners and Friends,

Over the next two weeks I will have the privilege to attend the 79th General Convention of our Church in Austin Texas as an alternate deputy for our Diocese.  General Convention takes place once every three years and is the business session of the Episcopal Church.  Among many important topics, this Convention will address revision of the Book of Common Prayer; our relationship with the United Methodist Church; and the structure of our Church in the 21st Century.

After General Convention we will have an information gathering at our parish with other deputies to explain, discuss and answer question about the decisions made in Austin.  I ask you keep our church leaders in your prayers during this time!

Blessings,

Fr. Justin

What a joy for the creation of the St. Christopher Memorial Garden of Christ Church.  We are thankful for the funds received through the Diocese from the former Church of the Epiphany, Ventnor, that enabled this project to be completed.  This is now an opportunity for you to support the perpetual care of the memorial garden.

You can do this by purchasing a dedication brick to be placed on part of the garden pathway.  At this time there are a limited number of bricks available.  Your engraved brick can be obtained at $100.00 per brick.  A couple of ideas for the dedication are in memory of someone, honoring someone, or sponsoring a brick for whatever reason. 

To obtain an order form, you may leave a message at the church office at 609-927-6262 or email Marilyn Anderson [email protected].  Forms are also available in the church narthex. 

Yours in Christ,

Memorial Garden Committee
