From the Pastor's corner

Looking Forward to…

We look forward to another Fall season at CELC:

September – the month of many blessings, and maybe receiving new members.

October continues with more blessing. We look forward to a special outdoor service of blessing for pets and their owners (see under newsletter for details), Thanksgiving, a blessing of 65 years of marriage, and the commemoration of the Reformation with a Hymn Fest.

November, the last month of the church year A, is marked by All Saints Sunday on November 5th, when we remember our dead, and all the saints of all times and places. 

We conclude the church year on the last Sunday of November by celebrating Christ the King Sunday.

 Time After Pentecost:

From Pentecost until Christ the King Sunday the church finds itself in the time after Pentecost or “Ordinary Time”. During this season of the church year, we hear most weeks the parables and teachings of Jesus.

The liturgical colour is green and it is used as a sign of creation and its growing green.
