Do You Have a Love for Gardening?
We’re looking for volunteers to help bring new life to our church grounds! With no current gardening group, our outdoor spaces are in need of some care and attention. Nan McDaniel is forming a team of volunteers for a one-time “work party” to refresh our garden areas, as well as a small group willing to help with seasonal upkeep throughout the year. With enough volunteers, we anticipate a light commitment—just 2–4 people working every 2–3 months on a rotating schedule. Please note: No work will be scheduled during the current heat wave. If you’re interested in lending a hand, please contact Nan or call the church office.
Supporting Disaster Relief Efforts
In light of the recent weather-related disasters, we want to offer clear ways for our church family to help those affected. If you feel led to make a financial contribution to relief efforts, here are three trusted opportunities for financial contributions. Please make all checks payable to Christ Church.
- Texas Flood Relief through the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR): write “112” in the memo line.
- United Methodist Conference Disaster Relief (Wheeling): write “920” in the memo line.
- New Vision Depot (Flood Buckets): write “922” in the memo line.
Thank you for being the hands and feet of Christ in times of need. Every gift makes a difference! If you have any questions, please call the church office at 304.342.0192.
Antiphonal Organ Project Update
Our Antiphonal Organ project (photo, left), which is being created from the organ pipes our church ancestors purchased over 120 years ago, has moved into the next step of construction in Cleveland, Ohio. Certain components of the Centrum organ console were removed last week so they can be updated and enlarged to accommodate playing the antiphonal organ. A simple wooden box now covers the internal pieces of the console in order to protect it. Therefore, we will be without the organ all summer, so guest instrumentalists will lead us in worship.
