Hey Christ Church!

I hope y'all are staying cool and enjoying your summer! Need something to listen to this summer? (You know, for road trips, work commutes, hanging out on the beach...) You should tune in to the latest episode of "Between the Times" (a podcast by Christ Church for Christ Church).  Check out the most recent episode - #123 "2022 PCA General Assembly Musings" - to hear Pastor Jon, Pastor Michael, and Dr. Gabe Williams discuss the 2022 PCA General Assembly. In this episode, they cover topics such as: what is General Assembly?, why is it important?, and what is being discussed this year? You can find the podcast on our website (under "resources"), on Apple Podcasts, and even on Spotify! (Just search "Between the Times") Episodes will be dropping every week for a few weeks, so stay tuned!

Speaking of General Assembly, it is coming up soon! (next week!) Please be in prayer for this very important meeting. Pray for our pastors and elders, as they travel next week to Birmingham, AL and do the business of the church. Pray for our denomination, the PCA,  as vital discussions and decisions are made. And pray that God would be glorified in and through it all.

That's all for this week! Stay cool, friends, and as always, reach out if you have any questions or concerns. 

Yours, 
Rachael McIntosh
Director of Media and Communications
