(Two!) Operation Christmas Child Packing Parties
The time is here! It's time to put a year's worth of working, shopping, and crafting into a box! Join us on one or both of 2 packing dates. It is a great time together, and is wonderful to watch all those Gospel Opportunities stack up!

Thursday, Nov. 1st at 6:00 pm Come ready to work! Water bottles and some snacks will be available, but we need to get the first 700 boxes for ages 10-14 packed that evening!

Saturday, Nov. 3rd at 10:00 am More of our children will be available to pack at this time and they will need adults to help them through the lines! We plan to pack an additional 300 boxes this morning, and will also need to reset the sanctuary when we are finished.

Whole Life Worship Starts January 7, 2018
Sunday Worship. Monday Life.

Sunday by Sunday we gather. The “retired-busy” crowd, the “living-life-to-the-full crowd”, the “uncertain-in-faith” crowd, the “juggling-work-and-family” crowd, we all come together in worship, expressing our unity in Christ and our deepest desires to follow him in every area of our lives day by day.

So how can our worship on Sunday empower us for the lives we long to live for Christ out in the world, Monday to Saturday?

Whole Life Worship is a follow up series from the same people that brought us Fruitfulness on the Frontline. We will explore what it means to worship through our everyday lives, our whole lives long. Whole Life Worship starts January 7.

​

“Reformation Ready” Series begins
Wednesday, September 20, 7:00 pm
​Pastor Mark will host a 6 week series on great leaders of the Reformation Wednesday evenings starting September 20. Each session will highlight the Biblical and social issues that were the catalyst and the fuel for God reforming his Church 500 years ago. Each week we will view a short video presentation, study pertinent scriptures, and discuss how we can and need to be re-formed today.

September 2016
What is “COVENANT COMMUNITY BIBLE EXPERIENCE”?
Read big. Read real. Read together.
​
The Evangelical Covenant Church is excited to announce a Covenant-wide effort launching in 2016 to be “People of the Book” together! Our denomination is encouraging us to join an unforgettable journey–to reignite our passion for the Scriptures. Sponsored by Make and Deepen Disciples (formerly the departments of Evangelism and Christian Formation).

Community Bible Experience is a different way to read the Bible: less like a reference book, more like a story. It’s a new way to talk about the Bible, too: less like a Bible study, more like a book club.

Christchurch will come together for this experience for 8 weeks this fall, starting the week of September 25th.
​
Are you ready? More info is on its way soon.​​
