Preparing for Next Week
Scripture Readings for February 22, 2015 ~ The First Sunday of Lent Genesis 9:8-17; Psalm 25:1-10; 1 Peter 3:18-22; Mark 1:9-15
Consider: On this first Sunday in the season of Lent we find Noah receiving a sign that the waters of the earth’s great flood have subsided. A new day dawns! Noah’s adventure began as God decided to respond to human sin. Consider sin; what is sin? Why does God react so strongly against it?
Sunday Morning Adult Classes ~ 9:15-10:15 a.m.
The Library Class is studying the Apocrypha.
Contemporary Issues and Biblical Thought Adult Class meets in the Quilting Room and is studying a book by James W. Moore entitled, “The Power of a Story.”
The Parlor Class is studying from the Present Word: 2/15—Serving the Least, led by Jack Ketterer; 2/22—Clothed and Ready, led by Les Morgan.
The Upper Room: An Intergenerational Class: Join us in the Upper Room (second floor, above the Parlor) to look at the Scripture readings that will be used in the 10:30am worship service. Exploring the background of these Scriptures helps us to better understand connections between song, sermon, Scripture and prayer in the 10:30 service. No previous Bible knowledge necessary – come as you are. Mike Ophardt leads the discussion.
The Westminster Class: During the month of February, Dr. Greg Linville will lead the class: Discovering Mentoring and Leadership Principles for the 21st Century: A Study of Acts. All are welcome.

ONE SUNDAY EVENING IN MARCH:
A MEANINGFUL LANDMARK IN OUR FAITH
JOURNEY
March 15, 2015 @ 6:00 – Chancel Choir, Orchestra, and Soloists
The Passion of Christ According to the Gospel of John
Hearing or viewing the whole story of Christ: from the Last Supper in the
Upper Room to His burial in the tomb, can be an emotionally exhausting experience. The epic film
directed by Mel Gibson, “The Passion of the Christ,” with Jim Caviezel as Jesus, became a box-
office sensation eleven years ago this winter. It was controversial with mixed reviews, and some
critics claimed that the extreme violence in the film obscured the message; additionally,
theologians questioned the authenticity of the non-biblical material that crept into the
“Hollywood” production. But the general public felt moved by the intense drama, because they
got to view the entire story, many for the first time in their lives. But, how often have we told
someone that the “book was be;er than the film” in comparing the two art forms? Whenever we
are called on to use our imaginations and to do our own work of engagement in a story, we seem
to have a deeper experience.
Consider making plans to become engaged in the Passion story via the music of Bach.
Next month a once-in-a-generation event will be offered by the musicians of our community, and
it will be more than just another concert in our venerated music series. The “Passion of Christ” set
to music by J. S. Bach is one of the great monuments of the Christian faith—one that rewards the
worshiper/listener on so many levels. Indeed it is a monumental undertaking for our parish
musicians, as it requires hours upon hours, and weeks upon weeks of preparation to ensure a
spiritually moving experience for all who a;end. Just as people a;ended the Gibson film in
“church groups,” so too our congregation may want to plan a group event on Sunday, March 15 at
6:00pm. Many Christ Church people have regular Sunday plans that revolve around family, Small
Groups, and fellowship; this event would be the perfect group activity for Lent.
To be sure, our March concert is a musical drama of a different kind. Many of us may ask,
“what can the music of J. S. Bach say to us in the 21st century?” Through this dramatic telling of
the passion story, the audience is asked many hard questions. The choir and the soloists confront
the listener with moral dilemmas of complicity or calloused distance from the crowd dynamic of
those tragic three days. By extension and metaphor, these same challenges come at us in our
modern daily lives. One does not only listen to the performance, but one ideally contemplates the
human condition as the dark story plays itself out in the music. The audience can observe the
angry crowd, and even identify with the chief priests and witnesses. In this music event the
listener enters the story, rather than watches a screen.
We do not know how many years the Gibson film will still be popular, but the Bach
version of the story has been a pillar of Western cultures for 180 years. Come to the beautiful
sacred space of our sanctuary in the middle of our Lenten journey to get involved in Christ’s story:
our story.

Israel and the Holy Land February 14 - 24, 2016
The Jewish Passover Seder concludes with the expression "L'shanah haba'ah b'Yerushalayim! - Next year in Jerusalem!"
These words are particularly apt for the Christ Church faith community today. In exactly one year, we will be landing in Tel Aviv to begin our pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
The tour includes visits to Tel Aviv, Galilee, and Jerusalem, including stops at many biblical sites such as the Sea of Galilee and the Garden of Gethsemane. We will also visit places of significance to the Israeli people including the Holocaust Memorial Yad Vashem. In addition to the 11-day/9-night tour of Israel and the Holy Land, there is an optional extension to Eilat on the Red Sea and the Ruins of Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Jordan, February 24-26, 2016.
Thirty-three people have already registered for the trip, but we have room for several more. To learn more, including answers to frequently asked questions, check out the information on the trip website at www.cantoncpc.org/holylandtrip2016, or contact Nancy Irving at 330.280.1868 / [email protected]. Next year in Jerusalem!
The Mission Ministry is asking you to save the “Boxtops for
Education” icons that are on various items that you purchase.
Check everything you purchase for this icon. When you cut it out
you have to get the name, Boxtops for Education, as well as the
10 cent value. Also please watch for expiration dates. For special deals and coupons
please open Box Tops for Education on your computer and see if you can use these
products. Always check expiration dates. Check weekly for new opportunities. The Allen
School staff is very excited that we are joining them in this venture. Anyone want to
match the amount we raise in 2015???? I will be happy to talk about how a match can be
made and how more than one person can participate. Call Bette Maier,
330-493-7247, to discuss. Please put your icons in a marked envelope in
the collection plate or drop them off at the Church office. We will accept as
many or as few that you can contribute.
Some Needs at the Food, Clothing and Prayer
Ministry: Please think of us if you have any used plastic grocery bags. On
Distribution day we can use as many as 350 bags in just one
day! Larger plastic shopping bags are also appreciated, especially
when we have heavy winter clothes to give away. Our infant and
young children's clothes are also very sparse. If you have things that no longer fit your
little ones, we would love to have them. We have several families who just had babies so we
are trying to help them with warm blankets, clothes and small size diapers/ baby wipes. As
always, we so appreciate your support of our Ministry. —Lorraine Murphy
CongregationalGreetingCardsAs an outreach to our congregational family, we will have 2 cards each

Communion is a holy time of worship when we come together as
one body to remember and celebrate Jesus' great love for us. It is a
sign of Christ's sacrifice for us.
Help a child in your life learn about the sacraments and the
importance of communion in worship through Communion Classes
this Lenten season at Christ Church.
Led by Jennifer George, classes are for children in grades 1st through
5th and will begin Sunday, March 8th and end on Palm Sunday,
March 29th. Classes will be held during the 9:15 hour and children
are welcome to attend even if they have attended communion
classes before.
A parent or designated adult must attend with your child and it is very important that
the child be able to attend all classes. Please contact Jennie George before registering if
either of these stipulations is an issue for your situation.
Children who have attended the classes will be invited to participate in a special
Communion Liturgy during the 10:30 Worship Service on Palm Sunday, March 29th.
To register your child(ren), go to www.cantoncpc.org/eventregistration to sign up.
Commission of New Stephen Ministers On February 22nd at the 10:30am service, we will commission three
new Stephen Ministers. They are: Mary Lou Reiman, Steve
Stocker and Kristi Wood. These three have been through 50 hours
of specialized training in Christian caregiving and join a team of
eight other Stephen Ministers at Christ Presbyterian Church.
Stephen Ministers provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to people
experiencing a crisis or going through a difficult time. Stephen Ministers meet
weekly with their care receiver for around an hour to listen, care, encourage, pray,
and provide emotional and spiritual support for the person. Caring relationships last
for as long as the person’s need persists.
Please lift up our new Stephen Ministers in your prayers, asking that God bless
their ministry and work through them to bring hope and healing to those they will
serve. Pray also for the continued ministry of our other Stephen Ministers and for
their care receivers.
Our congregation is one of more than 11,000 worldwide, representing 160 Christian
denominations that use the Stephen Series system of lay caring ministry developed
by Stephen Ministries in St. Louis.
