Calling all young adults (your definition)! Please join us October 25th for a 7:30 p.m. showing of _The Rocky Horror Show_ at the Lightroom Lounge in Martha’s Vineyard (located 215 W Olive St. Springfield, MO). We are asking that anyone joining please sign up on the blue Fellowship bulletin board across from the office. Each person is responsible for paying $12.50 to cover half the ticket price. You can pay by cash or by check, made payable to Christ Episcopal Church. We have a limited number of tickets, so it’s first-come-first-serve. Invite a friend!
A Christ Church Women’s Retreat with Bishop Diane Bruce is planned for Saturday, October 26th from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. in the parish hall. All women of the parish are invited to attend along with your friends. The cost is $20 to cover lunch and materials. Do yourself a favor and take a day off to join us for the Christ Church Women’s Retreat where you can relax and learn before the busiest days of the year are upon us! Click Here to rsvp!
