We also have increased our giving for the ministries of Christ Church. We will present a purse along with our gratitude for his fine work among us. Checks may be made out to Christ Church and earmarked for Alan. I am thrilled to announce that Canon Herbert O'Driscoll will be coming to Christ Church on Sunday, January 20, to preach in the morning and give the Sweeny Lecture in the afternoon. Let us all join together in carrying out Christ's mission in Grosse Pointe by proclaiming the Gospel with praise, worship, reaching out to the Christ in others, and building this branch of the Body of Christ.
Alpha is an opportunity for wonderful Christian fellowship.
Each evening begins with dinner and then a video presentation. Next you break into a small group setting to discuss the video's topic. The large group sessions and small group discussions are an effective way to gain understanding about the Christian faith, and to build friendships with others asking similar questions. The video presentations are led by Nickie Gumble, who studied law at Cambridge and theology at Oxford, practiced as a lawyer, and is now an ordained staff member of Holy Trinity Brompton Church in London.
