Christ Church 20s & 30s Cocktail Party – This Friday 

The first 20s/30s get-together of the Fall happens this Friday, Sept 30th, at the home of Matt and Meredith McClellan (1645 Keith Valley Road) from 6-8:30pm. Children are more than welcome. Hope you can join us! Especially if you’re new to Christ Church or haven’t been able to attend one of our events before, this is a great opportunity to get connected. As always, feel free to bring friends/beverages. We could use some help with appetizers and desserts. If you’re so inclined, please email Addie Jenkins at addiejenkins@gmail.com. To sign up for the CEC 20s/30s mailing list, contact Dave Zahl at dz@christchurchcville.org.


  • Collect for Purity

    Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer, page 355)

The Word

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

The Prayer

Almighty God, who through your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ overcame death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life: Grant that we, who celebrate with joy the day of the Lord's resurrection, may be raised from the death of sin by your life-giving Spirit; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer, p. 222)
