Pentecost Sunday May 28
Come and feel the wind of God’s Spirit among us as we celebrate the birthday of the church on Pentecost Sunday, May 28. You are invited to wear something red, as we remember the “tongues of fire” that marked the coming of the Holy Spirit to Jesus’ followers in Acts 2.
• Pentecost Worship
Our worship service will include expressions of gratitude for children’s Sunday school teachers Bev Machin, Eva Stimson, Jerry Van Marter, and Luke Van Marter; and for youth group leaders Rebecca Barnes, Chris Bischoff, and Luis Kemmerle. We will also recognize graduates Alek Kissell (high school) and Noah Wilding (college), and have a renewal of our covenant commitment.
• Pentecost Offering
Please bring a generous contribution (or give online) to the Pentecost Offering, one of the four special offerings of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), which benefits ministries for children at risk, youth, and young adults. CHPC will give 40% of offering receipts to Cedar Ridge Camp.
• Pentecost Potluck
Plan to stay after worship for a Pentecost Potluck lunch in Henry Young Hall and fun activities for all ages. Please bring a generous dish to share. There will be red desserts, music, chalk drawing, and other activities on the plaza in front of the church, weather permitting. If you play a musical instrument, you are invited to bring it to help us make a joyful noise (let’s revive the drum circle!). We are inviting people in the community to stop by, so please help us show hospitality to our closest neighbors!
