LOOKING AHEAD IN WORSHIP
See "Worship Services" regarding summer schedule.
May 16: Worship will include special music from our Chancel Ringers and Chancel Choir as these groups conclude their year of service.
Pentecost, May 23: Come to church prepared to celebrate the gift of God’s Holy Spirit. Wear something red, and be ready to "catch the spirit!" Our youth choirs will have a large part in the service through singing, ringing, and drama as the events of Pentecost are remembered. We will also recognize the choirs as they end the year.
Confirmation and High School Graduates Recognition, May 30: Since January, a number of CPC’s young people have been working with mentors in preparation for joining the church. During worship on Sunday, May 30, they will complete this process. Also on that morning, the congregation will recognize and honor CPC’s graduating high school seniors. A luncheon reception will follow in the Fellowship Hall, in honor of this year’s confirmands and graduates. Everyone is invited.
