Bishop Carrie Visits Christ Church Today

Our Diocesan Bishop, Rt. Rev. Carrie Schofield-Broadbent visits Christ Church at the 9:00 and 10:30 services this Sunday, November 30th, with Confirmation taking place during the 10:30 worship service. We hope that the entire congregation will join us on that special day as we receive new members of the Church. Then at 9 a.m., our Family Worship is an opportunity for all of our children to have an up-close and personal interaction with Bishop Carrie, to learn about the role of a bishop, what a bishop wears and why, and the sacrament of Confirmation.

Collect for Today:

Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
