Seventh Sunday of Easter, May 16
Scripture John 15:5, 9-17
Sermon From Followers to Friends
On the last night of his life, with one more teachable moment with his disciples, Jesus moves from the image of “I am the vine, you are the branches” to the simple yet transforming notion that we can be friends with God.
This Sunday we honor Amy Kennedy for twenty-five years of service to Christ Presbyterian Church as our church administrator. That’s a quarter-century of encouraging and empowering the mission of our church. Amy will be part of our online service at 9:00, and in person on the patio at 10:45.
Online coffee hour on Zoom 10:00 – 10:30 a.m. See This Week for Zoom Log in information
Beginning on Pentecost, May 23, we begin a new worship schedule.
Our goal is to provide opportunities to worship at varying levels of comfort and vulnerability.
Thus, both 9:00 and 10:45 worship will be live in-person and online:
-worship will be conducted in the sanctuary
-indoor seating reserved in the sanctuary and lobby, wearing masks, no singing.
-outdoor seating on the patio & yard, distanced, masked & unmasked (see below)
-every service will be available online, live and recorded.
Worshipers may choose the seating location that meets their comfort level. In order to assure the comfort of all who attend in-person worship and recognizing that there will be unvaccinated people present (including children and those with preexisting conditions), we ask the following:
Indoors: Masks to be worn over both the mouth and nose at all times and social distancing to be observed, with no singing.
Outdoors: In keeping with latest CDC guidance, fully vaccinated people (2 weeks after the last shot) need not wear masks except while singing. Masks should be worn by unvaccinated people (including those under 16 and those with preexisting conditions) and by those who prefer to do so.
