Month: April 2024

Hey Everyone,

Happy Saturday! This afternoon, I’m writing this post from my hotel room in Nashville, TN where the weather is warm and humid. 🙁 This morning I finished my last class for the pastoral care and counseling class I’m teaching for Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary. Although it’s been a joy teaching this week, I’m very much looking forward to being back in Lake City. Due the bridge closing, I had to change my flight times, days, and even the airport. Consequently, I’ll be arriving back into Gunnison tomorrow early afternoon.

Don’t forget that because I’m flying into tomorrow, we’ve moved the Sunday worship service for Sunday, April 28th to 4:00pm. Different time, same place. 🙂 Additionally, following the service, we’ll have a quick congregational meeting for the official members of Community Presbyterian Church. If you are a member on our rolls, we’d ask that you make every effort to join us in-person or online. Following the meeting, we’ll have fellowship, refreshments, and lawn games.

Our regular programming is back and we’re playing games this week. Join us on Monday, April 29th from 7:00-8:30pm in the Annex. Also, please note, the Earthly Possessions special series is back this week on Wednesday, May 1st from 5:00pm to 6:30pm. Join us for the second session of this series this week.

My last announcement is that WE NEED COOKIES!! Not for tomorrow, however. 🙂 For tomorrow’s special afternoon fellowship, I’ll pick something up before I return to Lake City. But beyond that… we are running low on cookies. Please consider baking a couple dozen cookies and dropping them off at the church to help supply our Sunday fellowship time.

Hey Everyone!

I hope you’re all well this week and enjoying the warmer weather. We’re getting a proper spring here in Lake City (or at least it feels like it), with flowers blooming and trees showing their buds. We’re even starting to see some seasonal folks return. The promise of summer is upon us.

This week is the fourth Sunday of Eastertide and we’ll be continuing on with our exploration of First John. Join us, this Sunday, April 21st at 10pm in the CPC sanctuary for our worship service. For those joining us via Zoom, your link and the order of worship can be found below.

While we WILL be playing games on Monday, April 22nd this week, we WILL NOT be having Bible Study on Wednesday. Our series Earthly Possessions will resume on Wednesday, May 1st at its usual time and place (including Zoom).

Also, don’t forget that CPC members are asked to remain after the Sunday morning worship service on Sunday, April 28th for our annual congregational meeting.

Hey Everyone,

I hope you’re all well this week. It feels like spring here in Lake City this week. The days are growing longer and the Sun feels warmer on my face. It’s hard to believe that the summer season is nearly upon us.

Hey Everyone!

I trust your Easter Octave has been filled with lots of celebrating the life we have in Christ Jesus through good fellowship, good food, and good desserts. If you haven’t been celebrating the Easter Octave, you should definitely start. It’s blessed week for Christians around the globe.

To that end, I’m thrilled to share that Grace Fellowship has invited us to join them for an Easter Octave Dessert Potluck this Saturday, April 6th at 6:30pm. Join us on Saturday evening at Richard and Rachel Moore’s home for a time of fellowship, Christian friendship, and dessert.

This Sunday, April 7th, we’ll also be joining together for the Second Sunday of Eastertide. During worship we’ll be celebrating communion during the service, so if you’re joining us via Zoom, please bring your communion elements to the broadcast.

Following the service, we will NOT be having a first-of-the-month potluck, but we will be having fellowship. That’s it for the notable announcement for the week. Here are the rest, followed by your links and the order of worship for the service.

ANNOUNCEMENTS 

Fellowship
Join us for a time of fellowship, coffee, and cookies in Darley Hall directly after today’s worship service.

Monday night Games Up Here this week!
Games this week! 7:00pm-8:30pm in the Annex.

April Session
The CPC elders will be meeting this Wednesday, April 10th from 10am to 12pm in Darley Hall. 

Wednesday Bible Study
Bible Study returns this week, Wednesday April 10th with the first part of our Earthly Possessions series. Join us in Darley Hall and on Zoom as we look at the socio-cultural factors that have contributed to our excessive consumption. 

Palm Crosses
Grab a couple of palm crosses from basket in the narthex on your way out and place them around your home and all over Lake City as a reminder of our call to love one another as Christ loved us.
