Being Reformed for the week ahead

Hey Friends,

This Sunday, I’ll be starting the Being Reformed class. We’ll gather at the Annex (and on Zoom) each Sunday for the next four weeks to explore and learn about the most essential parts of being part of a Presbyterian church (PCUSA). Coffee and muffins will be served at 8:15am and the class will start at 8:30am. For those joining us via Zoom, the link is below and we’ll start the broadcast a few minutes prior to 8:30am.

And, don’t forget, we’re still playing games online on Mondays at 7:00pm (QWIXX this week–See the Games Up Here page for more information), hosting Tea Time on Tuesdays at 2:00pm (this week is iced Moroccan Mint Tea), and delving into Acts of the Apostles at our weekly Bible Study on Wednesday at 4:30pm.

See you soon CPC. Here are your weekly links and the Order of Worship for this Sunday!

We’re Going Gold (or to Gold Hill that is)

Hey CPC,

It’s time to take CPC on the road for our annual Gold Hill service. We’ll be meeting at the church this Sunday, August 23, at 8:30am and carpooling over to Vicker’s Ranch at 8:45am. The road requires 4×4, so if you need ride, make sure you’re at the church at 8:30am. ATVs and OHVs are welcome. 😉

This is a BYOC event (bring your own chairs) and that’s all you’ll need. This year, we’re doing Gold Hill COVID-style so, we’ll be providing breakfast burritos, juice, and coffee for your refreshments. The service will still be broadcasted via Zoom at its normal time (10:00am), so if you can’t make it, log on like normal.

Also, if you’re looking for links to Gail LaGrone’s Memorial Service, you’ll need a Facebook Account. The service starts at 10:00 MST and you can find the service broadcasted through Facebook by searching for “Davidson Funeral Home Topeka.” Then, scroll down until you see the link for Gail’s Memorial Service.

See you soon CPC. Here are your weekly links and the Order of Worship for this Sunday!

Practice Round for Railroad Ink

Hey Gamers!

We had a great game on Monday and as promised, I’m posting 7 pictures of dice rolls so that you all can try the game once more. In order to play, print out the player sheet and then scroll down this post so that only one pictures is showing at a time. Don’t look ahead, as it might influence your decisions. Consider posting your score in the comments if you play. 🙂

And if you’ve never played, but are really curious and want to play, watch the video on the Games Up Here page. If you have any questions, let me know. Happy gaming CPC. 🙂

Trading Spaces

Hey CPC and Friends,

I hope you’re all well. I’m writing from Columbus, OH where Judah and I are visiting my mother. It feels strange to be preparing for our common worship this week from a remote location. Alas, strange is in the air. 🙂

This week is mostly normal, other than to announce that I’ve picked up some incredible new roll-and-write games while on the road. So consider joining us this coming Monday for a railroad-based roll and write game call Railroad Ink.

Though I’m flying back this Tuesday, I won’t make it in time for Tea Time, so I’ve asked a few of our CPC ruling elders to host this week. Come on out to the church yard for a cup of tea.

And, don’t forget that we meet on Wednesdays for our weekly Bible study–4:30pm. 😉

Finally, this week in worship we’ll be celebrating the Eucharist in the Sunday morning Worship Service that starts at 10:00am on ZOOM (and Zoom only). Remember to bring some bread and juice to our Zoom service this week.

As usual, these are the links you’re likely looking for:

Paul Hudgeons Memorial Service Update

Good morning all. We have decided to go ahead with Plan B for the memorial service.

Practically, this means that other than the family and out of town folks, everyone else is requested to use the Zoom platform to view the service. The link for the service will start broadcasting and accepting participants at 9:50.

The link is: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89485010815

The Order of Worship for the service can be found here.

If you’d like to join us for the Inurnment and Commendation in the church yard, please plan on arriving at the church 15 minutes after the announced intermission on the Zoom broadcast. Please bring umbrellas as there will be no covering provided for the larger crowd.

You are also invited to join us for an indoor/outdoor reception at 11:30 in the church yard and Darley Hall. Cookies and punch will be served. We request that you observe the face covering and social distance regulations for the service.

A Holy Weekend

Hey CPC and Friends,

I hope you’re all safe (and dry) as we approach this weekend. As I’m sure many of you are aware this weekend is somewhat of a holy time for our community of faith as we celebrate, mourn, and remember the life and death of our dear friend and brother-in-Christ, Paul Hudgeons. Unfortunately, it looks like it’s going to rain tomorrow, but given the size of this service, we’re just going to weather the storm and carry on. That said, you might consider bringing an umbrella.

If you’re looking for information related to Paul’s Memorial Service, please see the Memorial Service page located in the menu above. If you’re looking for Zoom links for the service or our Sunday service, Monday game night, or Wednesday Bible Study, those links are below. The Memorial Order and the Order of Worship for Sunday can also both be found beneath the links.

May your weekend be blessed.

We’re back on the lawn at a new time!

Hey Folks… I’ve got some exciting news. After future consideration, the CPC Session has decided to move our services back out on the lawn for most of the summer. By “most” I mean that we’ll return to a Zoom only service for the first week of each month in order to celebrate the Eucharist.

We’re also shifting the remainder of the summer services to 10:00am in order to accommodate our friends attending the Episcopal Service at St. James across the street. (Last week, our bells offered an unintended interlude to Rev. Nettleton’s sermon and we want to avoid that, so we’re shifting to 10:00am.) 🙂

This means that this Sunday, July 19th we’ll be on the lawn at 10:00. We’ll need a few folks to help us set up and you can sign up for set up and clean up here.

As usual, we’re still meeting on Mondays for games, Tuesday for Tea, and Wednesday for our weekly Bible Study. You can find the Zoom links for all of these opportunities and the order of worship for this week below.

Finally, as many of you know, Paul Hudgeons’s Memorial Service is coming soon on Saturday, July 25th at 10:00. For more information on the memorial service please click on the link in the top menu of this website. And, if you’d like to help out with the memorial service there are plenty of chance to serve in this way. Please follow this link, to an electronic sign-up sheet to help.
