Common Good Conference with Aaron McMillan. We’re all gardeners. Whether or not you cultivate a small or large plot of land in your backyard, you’re called to cultivate, keep and renew the place you find yourself. Cultivation and restoration happen in your work. The place you cultivate might be at home, an office, or somewhere you steward the work of your hands. The Common Good Conference will encourage you in your place, your work, and your faith. Join us as we explore key themes of creating, investing, protecting, preserving, healing and more. CPC is a host site of the live-streamed event on Friday, October 1st from 10am-2pm EST in room 101. Snacks and lunch included. To register, click HERE.

God’s Garden. CPC’s vegetable garden has grown lots of vegetables for families in our community and congregation. It’s time to prepare for winter. We need large pieces of cardboard (the larger the better). Additionally, the cardboard needs to be plain and brown (with minimal printing on the outside), unwaxed (no colored cardboard), tape and labels removed, and all staples removed. Cardboard is needed by October 3 (or sooner).

Important CPCKids Update for parents of children that attend 10:30am services. Children grow in faith by seeing their families worship together. On Sunday, October 3rd we will return to children worshiping with parents and then dismissing to CPCKids Class prior to the message. Look for the CPCKids leaders in bright teal shirts – they will lead children to classrooms. Children can then be picked up in assigned rooms or if indicated, the playground. More info online HERE.
