Month: September 2025

Hey Everyone!

I hope you’re all well. I’m posting early this week because I wanted to share with you that we’ve reached the 1,000th hiker in our guest book! Even more, as of this email, we’re a solid 1010 hiker. We’ve been told that there is a CDT bubble headed our way, so if you have time to host another shift over the next couple of days, please pop by Darley Hall and sign up. We’ve still got one week to go before we close our doors for the season, so don’t miss one final opportunity to serve our hiker ministry.

And, in case you forgot, tonight, Wednesday, September 24th we’ll gather at 5:00pm in Darley Hall to begin a new Bible Study series: Tough Questions, Tough Answers. We’ll begin the discussion tonight by asking what should our responses be to the Charlie Kirk assassination.

This Sunday, September 28th will be the Fifteenth Sunday of Ordinal Time. Join us for our Lord’s Day worship service at 10:00am in the CPC sanctuary and online. A time of fellowship will follow directly after the service.

This Monday, September 29th, we’ll be playing games in the Annex/Trail Hiker Center for one more week. Once we move into October, Games Up Here will return to Darley Hall.

Next week, join us for part II of our Tough Questions, Tough Answers series on Wednesday, October 1st at 5:00pm in Darley Hall.

That’s it for this week folks. Here are your links and the order of worship for this Sunday’s service and our weekly Bible Study.

Hey Everyone!

I hope you’re all well and in fine spirits. Before I get to our common life for the week, let me remind you that the Fruit of the Spirit prints are in and are on the large wooden table in Darley Hall. If you’re paying by check, it can be made out to Community Presbyterian Church. If you’ve left town already, please contact me and we’ll sort out how to get the print to you. 

Also, we’re still in need of trail hiker center hosts for the rest of this week. We’ve got two open shifts for each of the next three days. There are openings on Friday from 1-3 and 3-5, Saturday from 11-1 and 1-3, and Sunday from 11-1 and 1-3. We’re also still looking for a shuttle driver for Sunday. If you can cover one of these please text me or fill in the opening on the sheet in Darley Hall.

This Sunday, September 14th is the Thirteenth Sunday of Ordinal Time and we’ll gather at 10:00am in the CPC sanctuary for our Lord’s Day Worship Service. Join us for the service and for fellowship directly after the service in Darley Hall.

Also, don’t forget that Sunday evening, September 14th is our Trail Hiker Center Volunteer Appreciation Dinner at 5:30pm. If you’ve volunteered in any way with the THC, please consider joining us. If you’d like to participate, PLEASE RSVP by tomorrow, Friday, September 12th at 12:00pm/noon (as I’m going up to Gunnison to shop for the dinner that afternoon). You can RSVP in three different ways: 1) Reply to my email, 2) text me, or 3) stop by the church and sign up in Darley Hall or on the refrigerator in the THC.

This coming week, Games Up Here game night is returning to Monday evenings. Join us this Monday, September 15th from 7:00pm to 9:00pm in the Trail Hiker Center/Presbyterian Annex.

Just a reminder, I’ll be in Washington D.C. with the Land and Water Conservation Fund advocating for the preservation of public lands. Consequently, there is no Bible Study this week. Our weekly Bible study will return on Wednesday, September 24th at 5:00pm.

Below you’ll find your Zoom link and the order of worship for this Sunday’s service.
