CHILDCARE is available today from 8:30am to 10:30am for infants through those who have just turned 3 years of age.  These children will be cared for in the Nursery located downstairs on the lower level.    

 

CHILDREN’S SERMON Children ages 3 years old through 5th grade are invited to attend the children’s sermon every Sunday during the 9 o’clock service.  The children follow the crucifer and teachers (after the Gospel reading) to St. Mary’s Hall for children’s sermon.   The children return during the post-sermon hymn to be with their parents for the remainder of the service.  

 

NEIGHBORS IN NEED    Please remember our neighbors over the coming months. Many children will miss their school lunches this summer and some children will certainly go without ... unless we step up and help. Thanks for keeping our friends in mind as we shop for groceries.      

 

ENRICHING OUR WORSHIP

You will notice that some of the prayers used in our service of Holy Eucharist are a little different today.  That is because from until September 12 we are using a eucharistic prayer from the supplemental liturgical materials prepared by the Standing Liturgical Commission and approved at the 1997 General Convention of the Episcopal Church.  These prayers are part of the continual evolution of liturgies used by Christians since the Early Church.  Please pay attention to the prayers, and if you have any particular reactions to words or phrase (for instance Fr. Adam particularly likes the introduction to the Sanctus that says, “And so this day we join with Saints and Angels in the chorus of praise that rings through eternity…”), please let Fr. Adam know.  At some point Fr. Adam will send his feedback to the Standing Liturgical Commission of the national church.

 

MIDWEEK WORSHIP SERVICES

  • Each Wednesday, the Holy Eucharist/Healing Service is offered at

        12 o’clock noon in the Chapel.    

  • Each Friday, the Holy Eucharist is offered at 7:30 a.m. in the Chapel. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, Morning Prayer is offered at 8:45 a.m. in the Chapel.   

 

ADULT FORUM COFFE HOUR­   We are asking your help in hosting the Adult Forum coffee hour on Sunday mornings following the 10am worship service in the fall.  A sign-up sheet is posted on the bulletin board for you to offer your help with this important ministry.   The sign up sheet is for hosting only with a description of hosting duties.  Let’s not assume the regular folks will sign up…we need you!   Please sign up TODAY so that we can plan and prepare for fall.  

 

ACME SUPERDOLLARS

Do you shop at Acme, even a little bit?  If you do, please participate in our ACME SUPERDOLLARS program.  All you do is purchase our Acme gift cards, available in denominations of $25, $50, $100 and $200, and bingo! Christ Church earns 5 cents on every dollar of your purchase!  When you go shopping, use these gift cards just like cash.  If you don't use the entire amount on one shopping trip, just continue to use the card until the value is exhausted.  With your participation, this simple act of stewardship has the potential to generate considerable income for Christ Church without any of us spending an extra penny!  The greater the participation, the more money we earn.  Great idea, right?  All we need is you to make this program a success.  Please look for Joyce Glackin (610-872-2832) or Susan Mayer (610-804-8706) after church or contact them for free delivery.     

 

 

LOGOS MEETING will be held on Thursday, September 2nd, 7pm in St. Mary’s Hall. 

 

BULLETIN ANNOUNCEMENTS   Each Sunday’s announcements will be posted to the website on the prior Friday.
