From Stewardship Committee
Getting to know your fellow parishioners by Diane McKeefery
I interviewed Bob "Grumpy" Williams on Sunday, who is an usher at the 10 o'clock service. Although he was rather pleasant than Grumpy.  He has been a member of Christ. Church for 47 years. He likes the church because of the people, which are definitely an asset to this Church.  He is semi-retired, but was a banker for 54 years.  His hobby is gardening. Thank you Bob for chatting with me!
 
 Coat Collection

    The Stewardship committee starting in November will be collecting used/in good condition adult and kids winter coats.  There will be a bin placed in the Parish hall.  These coats are for our community and also anyone of need in our parish family. The coats will be collected periodically and distributed, so if you know of someone who could use a coat, please contact Diane at 609-576-8845.  The Stewardship committee thanks you in advance for your participation. 
Stewardship Sunday
