Worship Materials for November 3
All Saints Celebration and Communion
“This is the time of year when we remember our ancestors in the faith. We truly are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses, the Church and its people across the centuries that were faithful to God and to us.”
We are delighted to invite you to our annual All Saints celebration worship service and communion this Sunday at Christ Congregational Church — where our inclusive community of spiritual seekers honors and celebrates people of all races, cultures, ages, abilities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Join us on Sunday November 3rd at 10:30 AM, in person or on Zoom.
This Sunday’s service features our annual memorial slideshow “Remembering the Saints” in remembrance of loved ones who have passed on over the past year. We will also hear a presentation of CCC’s Because We Care program, by Marilyn Hall. Our beloved Chancel Choir will perform “Child of Wonder” from The Sacred Veil by Eric Whitacre, “Hark, I Hear the Harps Eternal,” Traditional Hymn, arr. Alice Parker, among other pieces. Teddy McDonough will be our Lay Reader this Sunday and will read selections from scripture (Psalm 78: 1-4, 12-16 and Isaiah 35: 1-4). Pastor Matt will offer a Meditation, “Strength for Today, Bright Hope for Tomorrow”, based on Hebrews 12: 1-2. Pastor Matt Braddock, Pastor Aubra Love, and the Communion Team will also lead us in the Sacrament of Communion this Sunday.
“CCC practices open communion. Anyone who seeks the love of God is welcome at the Table. Jesus, our Teacher and Leader, offers an Open Table of radical hospitality.”
Communion Sunday also gives us an opportunity to donate to support the Deacon’s Fund. The Deacons Fund is a separate fund from the Unified Budget and is used to support members of the church in times of financial need and is dispersed at the discretion of our Pastoral Team.
