Dear Parish Family,

We need volunteers to sign up to lead Children's Church for the 1st, 3rd and 4th Sundays of the month (the 2nd & 5th Sundays are already covered). The weekly bulletins, leader's lesson guide, and poster are all printed and ready in the Sunday school room. 

Supporting our children with age appropriate instruction is part of our duty to "go and make disciples". Volunteer today so we can get started on fulfilling the "Safe Church" requirements of the Episcopal Church for volunteers working with children.   Please contact the office to get the process started - This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or 715.835.3734.

Continuing this Sunday, at 6 p.m. CST, and for each Sunday until we can return to full attendance at our churches, The Ven. Jo Glasser and Dn. Marlene Hogue will be leading Evening Prayer. This service should last about 20 minutes and is intended to supplement, not replace, your Sunday morning time with your rector or priest in charge. Instead of the Sunday Lectionary readings, he will draw upon the daily office readings. In the Zoom system's video there is a chat button. This will give you the opportunity to ask questions about the Gospel or the sermon. You will need to have a Book of Common Prayer with you to follow the service.

Last month the Vestry approved support of the Eau Claire Warming Center being housed in the basement of the 502 S. Farwell building. Ken Van Es and Mike Carlson represent Christ Church Cathedral on this committee.

This committee was formed due to the overflow of homeless being turned away from the Sojourner House and having no warm place to stay. The committee has raised funds to support CCC in heating and utilities for the building during the winter months.

The basement will be used as a warming shelter during the overnight hours and will be staffed by qualified, trained volunteers during open hours (8 pm - 8 am). You can find more information about this program at this web site: www.ecwarmingcenter.com. You will also find a link for volunteers on this website. The center began operations on Sunday, December 15th. They have served 3-6 people per night open. Please sign up to volunteer for an evening. It cannot open without the necessary volunteers.

Singing Rooster CoffeeRight before the pandemic hit, we purchased our regular order of Singing Rooster Coffee, Fair Trade coffee grown in Haiti. Since we are currently not having coffee hour, we would like to make it available to you to purchase. The sales have been going so well that we now only have ground decaf remaining. The cost is $10.00 for a 12 ounce bag. 

We will continue to support this organization and look forward to a day when we can once again enjoy coffee hour, physically together, safely! 

All proceeds will be donated to The Haiti Project.


 

Carillon bell music continues at NOON on Sundays, approximately fifteen minutes of music of the liturgical season is being played  on the carillon bells. Music selections include service music - Gloria, Sanctus, Lord’s Prayer, Morning Prayer Canticles - along with hymns, hymn tune variations, and voluntaries for each particular Sunday.

All glory and praise be to God, and may our hearts and spirits be lifted with the weekly music of our Cathedral carillon bells.

We have decided to expand the network of those we are able to impact at Christ Church Cathedral! Please assist us by following our new Instagram & Twitter feeds which can be found by using the address @ccceauclaire for both. Our Facebook address is @cathedralec.
