Assistant to the Rector: Philip Ryan
|
 Our newly hired Assistant to the Rector, Philip Ryan, along with his wife Amanda and their daughter Greta, will be moving into Louttit Hall on August 26. He will officially begin on September 1st. Philip has extensive ministry experience and is a gifted preacher and teacher. He completed his Bachelor of Arts degree in Biblical Studies and Languages at Evangel University, his Master of Arts degree in Exegetical Theology at Covenant Theological Seminary, and his Master of Theology degree at Candler School of Theology, Emory University. Christ Church has a rich tradition of raising up ordained clergy, and along these lines Philip will be entering the ordination process in The Episcopal Church. In the meantime he will be licensed by Bishop Benhase as a Licensed Lay Preacher and a Licensed Lay Eucharistic Minister. Here at Christ Church he will be working on developing our college and youth ministries, further developing our local outreach efforts, and doing some preaching and teaching as well. I ask you to join me in warmly welcoming Philip, Amanda, and Greta into our Christ Church family!
The Ryan's will be here the afternoon of Friday, August 26 around 2 PM. We need volunteers to help them unload their U-Haul.
There will be a H.E.P Party at the Rectory on September 1st beginning at 6:00 p.m. to welcome the Ryan family to Christ Church.

| In His Holy Name: A Collection of Sermons |
| By the Rev. Peter L. Ingeman |
Over the past six months, some friends of Fr. Peter and Happy have been working to collect and edit 152 of Fr. Peter's sermons for publication. The resulting book, In His Holy Name: a Collection of Sermons, is now available. The website for the book, <https://ingemansermons.wordpress.com>, has information on how to download a copy of the book without charge, and how to order paperbound and hardbound printed editions at a minimal cost, including any discounts that may be available from the publisher from time to time. This website also includes links to the PDF file of the entire book, the 152 individual sermons in PDF format, six audio recordings of Fr. Peter preaching at Christ Church in 2006, and a photographic collage of Fr. Peter and Happy. The book is also available on Amazon <https://www.amazon.com>. Proceeds from the purchase of the printed books will be donated to the Christ Episcopal Church Altar Guild Fund.
