Announcements as of June 18th:

Hospitality Head: CTR has gained a reputation for our excellent hospitality. Please pray in order to discern whether God is calling you to be the new leader of our hospitality team for this coming year. Perhaps you would enjoy interacting with experienced volunteers who will cook and clean up. If this sounds like a good use of your organizational ability, email Fr. Brian to find out more about this vital ministry.

Baby Bottle Campaign: Today is the last day for the Baby Bottle Campaign in support of Your Options Medical Pregnancy Support Center. The money raised will help new mothers. If you have not done so yet, please return your baby bottles and donations to the baskets found at the church entrances. Thank you!

Summer Sunday School: This summer we are offering three different mini-series for adult Sunday School at 9 a.m. For the first topic series, we are watching presentations from this past year’s Anglicans for Life Conference. Weekly topics are “Thinking Biblically about Bioethics in the Church” (June 14), “Thinking Biblically about Bioethics at Conception” (June 21), and “Thinking Biblically about Bioethics at the End-of-Life” (June 28). After each session, there will be a brief Q&A opportunity with Fr. Brian or Fr. Samuel.

No Fainting!: It almost goes without saying that without air conditioning, our church building can get very warm in the summer months. Please take care to dress in light and airy clothes, drink plenty of fluids, and have a decent breakfast before coming to church. If someone near you faints, please alert the ushers immediately. We have hand fans available at the entrances, ice water available in the parish hall, and orange juice in the sacristy. Thank you!

Films Worth Talking About: We will end this year’s season of films on Saturday, June 27, with a faith-affirming biopic from 1955 titled “A Man Called Peter.” The film traces the life of Minister Peter Marshall, who had a modest beginning in Scotland and eventually became chaplain of the US Senate. Add to this a touching true love story, and we have a movie that will lift your spirit! Food and fellowship starts at 6 p.m at the Chuisano’s home in Beverly. Please RSVP to michael.chiusano@comcast.net.

Offices Closed: Church offices will be closed for Juneteenth on Monday, June 22.
