THE BAD NEWS: The Christ Church furnace has broken, and cannot be repaired before Sunday.
 
THE GOOD NEWS: Our worship has been relocated! There will be one Sunday service at All Saints, Brighton Heights (3577 McClure Ave, Pgh 15212) at 10:30 a.m.
 
What this means is: NO Sunday School and NO choir. All Sunday School teachers, greeters, ushers, lay readers, chalice bearers, and coffee ministers may join us in the pews.
 
Consecration Sunday will be moved to NEXT Sunday, November 26 . You may still use the red Easy Pledge Button on the website.
 
In Christ,
Canon Jim
