In preparation for those being confirmed, received, or reaffirmed, we are having a Sunday School class, "The New Life of Grace", September 8 through September 29, in the Parish Hall following the 10:00 service. This is open for all adults and youth interested in confirmation, and anyone else who would like to join us as we cover the basics of the Christian faith, The Book of Common Prayer, the Episcopal Church and living "the new life of grace"-we'll have fun with it! We will also have a
dessert gathering at the rectory
7:00 Wednesday, October 9 just for those who will be prayed over by Bishop Benhase on October 13. This will likely be Bishop Benhase's final Sunday visit at Christ Church as acting bishop, so please join us on October 13 if you can. :)

For years, the Stitchers of Love have been creating and donating countless prayer shawls, lap blankets, scarves, baby hats and blankets, and other items. We would like to invite our Christ Church family to visit the Stitchers' shelf in the parish hall and to take home any of the tagged items as a comfort gift for yourself or to take to someone else. Each has been made with love and prayers, and each has been blessed at the Christ Church altar. If you have any questions or would like help in choosing, see Frances Guice, Pepi Nelson, Patricia Marks, or any of the Stitchers. Stitchers of Love meets the first and third Sunday of each month from 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall. All are welcome to come stitch, or learn to stitch. We have many teachers.
