Noon Eucharist with Turkey

After the Wednesday noon (12:05) eucharist on 29 June 2011, Bronnie will show her photos from her trip to Turkey. There may even be a bit of a repast to share.

Trinity Sunday and week

For those of us not going to the diocesan picnic at Waldameer, Bronnie is providing a Turkish coffee hour. She will also be showing pictures from her trip. An additional reason to be in church on Sunday!


On Friday, 17 June, the Learning Center received permission from the Pennsylvania Board of Education to operate a K - 4 in classrooms in Christ Church. One Tuesday the Meadville Tribune will visit to prepare an article for the paper. Watch for the publicity. If you know of families who would prefer to educate their young people outside the public schools, please tell them about The Learning Center. More information will be forthcoming and an Open House will be scheduled for mid-July.


On Wednesday, 22 June, the vestry will be having a retreat to discuss the future of Christ Church. Your prayers are requested for those who will brainstorm where we could be in ten years and how we can get there.


On Sunday, 26 June, the daughter of Leah's violin teacher will be baptized at Christ Church. Come and help us celebrate this new member of the body of Christ. The Pettits are providing coffee hour.

What's in the belfry?

Spring flowers

Many of the spring plants around Christ Church Meadville have flowered and retreated. These are the current beauties.

Yes, Christ Church Meadville welcomes all!

The June Chronicle

The newsletter has been frustrating this month. The printer ran out of toner and the box which supposedly contained black toner actually had yellow. Then the people who kindly helped fold, label and stamp the newsletters to be mailed forgot to tape them and the editor mailed them without realizing that. Of course the mailbox had already been emptied by the time the error was discovered. The recipients probably got a cover and a calendar only. Sigh.

There is an error in the time for the eucharist at Waldameer. Registration begins at 10 with the eucharist at 11.

If you know someone who receives the Chronicle via postal mail, please print it from the internet and visit them with. Of course that will be little difficult for our Virginia and Texas friends.

Meanwhile, Rose Dunn, we need you well and back home taking care of our mailing!
