Dear Friends,
Words are inadequate to describe my thanks for your thoughtfulness and generosity upon my retirement as your Director of Music. Your kind notes and gifts were so humbling. The luncheon was wonderful ... down to my onion-less broccoli salad and Baby Yoda balloon! The monogrammed Wesley Study Bible will be an inspiration in my devotional study time. CHPC has a special place in my heart as one of the great blessings in my life. Much obliged, Lord, for Colonial Heights Presbyterian Church!
With love,
Carlene Eastridge

Current Covid Protocols
Out of an abundance of caution and a shared desire to love others as Christ calls us to do, the following church ministries have been adjusted by the Session until October 1. This includes all individuals masking while on campus and certain programs going outside or online. You may read the guidelines in detail here. Thank you for your willingness to love thy neighbor in these ways as we seek to faithfully serve in Christ's name.

Peach and Global Witness Offering |
|
On World Communion Sunday, next Sunday, October 3, we celebrate that Christ’s peace extends throughout all creation. We celebrate that we are all together at the table, in God’s house.
Peace is active, not passive. Peace is doing, not waiting. We celebrate that we are offered what we need to continue the work of building the household of God with active peacemakers here at home and around the world.
As a shared offering, your gifts on World Communion Sunday to the Peace & Global Witness Offering support peacemaking in your own community, your own region and places around the world. Thank you for your generosity; for when we all do a little, it adds up to a lot.
