Pentecost Sunday at Christ Church - this Sunday, May 24 Gather with us in the New Brick sanctuary for just one service - at 10:00 a.m. - as the choir processes through the aisles while we all sing "Praise Ye the Lord!" in full voice. Be sure to wear some red to celebrate the Day of Pentecost (red is the liturgical color of that day), and everyone is invited to wear clothing that reflects their heritage and culture, as well. In an expression of this beautiful "melting pot" we

Gather with us for brew and banter, suds and spoken word, lager and laughs... no matter what you call it, Theology on Tap is a fun, informal get-together where we can chat about interesting religious, spiritual, or social articles of the day, grab a beverage or snack, and enjoy fun, engaging, structure-free conversation with other parishioners and friends for an hour or two. We like to use this time to speak about things that might be considered a bit casual or light for a Su

What a beautiful morning! Youth Sunday at Christ Church always is. The youth of Christ Church led and participated in all three worship services this Sunday, so from 8 a.m. until noon, we were blessed with powerful sermons, scripture readings, and assistance as we entered the sanctuary and approached the altar. The older youth sang for the younger ones at the 9 a.m. Family Worship, and the 10:30 service had gorgeous music floating to the rafters! Thanks to every youth for the

Part two of our Mother's Day week photo series brings us to the weekend, and on Saturday, the Center for Spiritual Nourishment celebrated mothers in all walks of life, exploring how we view God as a divine mother and how we celebrate those who have nurtured us. Then on Sunday, we celebrated mothers all morning long, recognizing that mothers come in more forms than we could possibly count, and whether by choice, by circumstance, or simply by pure, unconditional love, each of u

Back after a Lenten season break, Theology on Tap returns tonight, April 15, at Frisco and the Reckless Shepherd for great food, drink, and conversation from 7:00-8:30 p.m. If you are not familiar with Theology on Tap, this is a fellowship gathering for adults taking place in a casual, relaxed environment. Topics can range from current to historical events - nothing is off the table. This is simply an opportunity to spend time with fellow parishioners and friends in an atm

The holiest of weeks begins with Palm Sunday, also called Passion Sunday. Here, the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem is recalled, and yet, the liturgy quickly shifts to the events of the week that lead Jesus to his arrest, trial, and death on the cross. The congregation gathers in Old Brick, processes to New Brick with blessed palm leaves, and joins in the reading of the Gospel narrative in parts. The liturgy ends in quietness, a stark contrast to the joy of the proce

Gather with us tonight, as we welcome those of every faith into our sanctuary, joined together by a shared heartache - and a shared hope. LIFT US UP: A PRAYER VIGIL FOR NON-VIOLENCE AT A TIME OF CRISIS was borne from a need to heal, to understand, and to act. Lifting our collective voices in speech and song, we unite not as strangers, but as neighbors united in our rejection of violence and a deep desire for healing in our community and our world. Tell your friends, family, a
