Success in the Dominican Republic
Mission Team Returns
From June 15-22, 2013, seventeen missioners from nine different Episcopal and Catholic congregations in Georgia and Alabama came together to form the 2013 Dominican Republic Mission team sponsored by Christ Episcopal Church. Read the trip report and view the photographs to share the joy and sense of accomplishment we shared with our friends in El Pedregal. The photo album will grow over the next 2 weeks as new photos are edited and posted. 

God brought us home rejoicing in the wonders He has shown us.

Cell Phone recycling
Help support The Haven
The Haven is collecting old, broken, unused, or outdated cell phones.  Donating your old cell phone will help The Haven serve victims of domestic violence.  Cell phones can be dropped in the box located in the Parish Hall, or can be dropped off at the Community Depot.
Lock-in and Tubing
August 9 & 10, 2013
The Youth are planning a lock-in on Friday, August 9 at 7:00 p.m. at the Gabard Education Building.  The group will leave the church Saturday morning for a day of tubing down the Ichetucknee River.  They should return to the church by 5:00 Saturday evening.  Anyone interested in attending, please contact David Singleton.

Search Committee 

Please pray for the Search Committee as it works on the Parish Profile.  Pray that we will find language and images that will accurately depict the spirit of Christ Church.

 

If you have questions, please contact Phyllis Holland, 242-0577.

 

With our sincere gratitude,

The Search Committee members: Michael Black; Allan Dear; Phyllis Holland, Chair; Jeani Synyard; Mike Tanner; Helen Tucker; Nikki Yarbrough.

Summer Worship Schedule
When Canon Logue was here with the vestry a week ago, he told the vestry that he thought that Christ Church should continue with the summer schedule of services through August. That will give us more time to test the schedule and to gather feedback. So please mark your calendars appropriately. The 8:00am,10:00am and 6:00pm services will continue through August, and the vestry will be asking for your feedback on why you attend the service that you attend and what you particularly like about that liturgy.
Financial Peace University

This life-changing 9-week class taught by Dave Ramsey and the FPU teaching team on video and coordinated by Frances Guice will help you achieve your financial goals by showing you how to eliminate debt, save for the future, and give like never before. You will be challenged and motivated to make a plan for your money and change your family tree forever.
