Growing Closer to Jesus

What a journey!  God teaches us that fellowship is extremely important in growing to spiritual maturity.  Although we are not capable of becoming spiritually mature until we reach heaven, we have accepted the challenge by becoming Christians.  Christ Episcopal Church offers regular Bible studies and social opportunities to foster this growth.

The Last Seven Words of Jesus Christ - Reflections from the Good Friday Service 2007

    In what has become one of the most powerfully moving services here at Christ Church, parishioners are asked to reflect on the seven last words of Jesus Christ, our Savior, as he hung on the cross.  There is no structured format, no particular style of presentation - just the gift of God's Word spoken by people we worship, sing, and fellowship with each Sunday.  Make this service as much a part of your Easter weekend as chocolate bunnies and Easter lillies.  It will touch your soul and add a new dimension to your personal relationship with our Lord.  Here is a selection of the 2007 reflections: 7 Last Words - 2007 

What can I do to get started?

Join us for worship experiencing the presence and power of God in our lives.

Get involved in various fellowship activities.  When you get to know other Christians, the Holy Spirit uses that time to build your faith.

Contact the church for more information.

 
Together at Christ Church we are transformed by God as we share the love of Christ, give praise to Christ, serve others for Christ, grow in our relationship with Christ, and support each other in Christ.
