Welcome Newcomers!
Welcome to Christ Church. We’re so glad you’re here. If you would like more information regarding our ministry, please visit our web site at www.christchurchcville.org and fill out one of the visitor cards located in the pews. You may place it in an offering plate or give it to an usher. Visitor brochures and parking maps are available on bulletin boards throughout the church.
Summer Schedule
If you have young children, we have a nursery available during the 9′clock service. We also have children’s worship bulletins and crayons on the window seat just outside the sanctuary where the emergency food basket is located.
Soup Kitchen Helpers Needed This Summer
If you have time on your hands this summer, Loaves & Fishes could use your help. We need folks to help serve lunch every Tuesday from 12-1 p.m. Please call the head of our Soup Kitchen, Gene Bogen, at 202-8274, or email him at bogen1519@comcast.net. Thanks!
Christ Church Classics Series
This month, we will read Jacob’s Room by Virginia Woolf. This is a book that portrays everyday events with great imagination and creativity. The novel is short, but read attentively. We will meet on Thursday, August 5th, in the Gibson Room, at 7:30pm, and, of course, refreshments will be served. Please e-mail Zach Williams at zmw19@hotmail.com with questions and to receive announcements about the Christ Church Classics Series.

Book of Common Prayer
We have ordered 25 new BCP’s to replace some of the tattered ones in our pews. If you would like to purchase one and have a bookplate dedication inserted in the front of the book in memory of a loved one, please contact the church office at 293-2347. The cost is $15.
Bible Studies
The Women’s Bible Study, which meets on Thursday mornings from 9:30-11 a.m., will begin again on Sept. 9th. We have decided to offer a study on Praying the Names of Jesus, using a book by Anne Spangler. This is a 26 week course, taking us into May 2011. Please notify Libby Palmer if you would like to join the group or order the book (billlibsam@embarqmail.com; 978-2138).
The Men’s Bible Study meets at 7:15 a.m. on Thursday mornings in Meade Hall (coffee & bagels available at 7 a.m.).
2010 Altar Flowers & Wine, Wafers, & Candles
If you would like to dedicate altar flowers or wine, wafers and candles for 2010, please call the church office (293-2347). Even if you have done so in previous years you need you to call and confirm, as some people change their minds about dedications, move away, etc. Thank you for your cooperation.
will take place during the 10 o’clock Sunday School hour, Feb. 21-March 21.
