Hi COTC Family,

The main thing in this week’s announcement is this video regarding a minor change to our practice in receiving communion. Check it out! 

In addition to that announcement we wanted to highlight our Parish Meeting this coming Sunday between services, beginning at 10:15 and finishing prior to the 11am service. I’m excited for all that will be communicated in this meeting. Our new Parish Council candidate info is here. The information updated constitution can be found here. Please make every effort to join us for this meeting. Here is the info regarding children: 

• Nursery (0-18mo): Littles will sit with parents for the meeting. Pack a snack! 

• Toddlers/Pre-K: If your child attends the 9, please return them to the toddler rooms after communion. If your child is attending the 11, check them in upon arrival! 

• Elementary: They will meet a few staff members on the patio for a popsicle and some outside playtime. Please do NOT send younger siblings outside, as they will have quite a few kids to keep an eye on!  

Lastly, a quick reminder that Pentecost is right around the corner. Join us for worship and a party following the 11am service as we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit. Wear red, bring a side or dessert to share, invite a friend to party with us! 

Grace and peace, 

Peter+

Ps. The sermon this Sunday is focussed on John 12:20-36a. As you read the text consider these questions: Where and how do you notice time in this passage? What thoughts or feelings emerge as you consider the references to time?
