PASTORAL GREETINGS
Did you know that those words "do not fear" appear in the Bible 365 times? God knows we need that daily reminder, especially during difficult times. We know and trust that God is with us. We also know and trust that we will remain connected as a church family as best we can in these difficult days. Let us uplift each other in prayer! May the peace of God which passes all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and may the blessing God almighty, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, remain with you always. Amen.

Fall Book Study
The CHPC Adult Discipleship Team invites you to a fall book study of the 50th anniversary edition of “Christian Doctrine” by Shirley C. Guthrie, a PC(USA) minister and professor. This study, which began last spring, has resumed on Tuesday evenings at 7pm in the Blue Room and will be led by Marley Warren and Justin Williford. “Christian Doctrine” has introduced thousands to the tenets of the Christian faith. This anniversary edition reflects changes in the church and society, taking into account new works in Reformed theology, gender references in the Bible, racism, pluralism, ecological developments, and liberation theologies.
