Autumn has Arrived!

Hey All,

Happy Trails

Hey CPC!

I hope you’re all well on this beautiful Saturday afternoon. I don’t know about you, but I can’t believe it… this will be the Harrises’ last Sunday with us. 🙁

Tomorrow morning, Sunday, September 5, we’ll gather for Worship at 10:00 in the CPC yard. During the service, we’ll take the opportunity to express our gratitude for the Harrises’ years of service and friendship and to send them off with our love and prayers. Following tomorrow’s worship service, we’ll hold a reception for the Harrises outside on the columbarium patio.

During worship, we’ll be celebrating the Eucharist. If you’re joining us in person on the lawn, the communion elements will be brought to you (with COVID precautions).
