CHRIST CHURCH CARRYOUT
Become a Christ Church Carryout Ministry Team Member!
The Christ Church Carryout ministry delivers meals to some of our homebound members as well as those with a special need such as an illness, surgery, birth of a new baby or death in a family. Our prepared meal for Wednesday night programming is delivered each Wednesday night to the ministry recipients. Meals are picked up between 4:30 and 5:00 PM at the church and then delivered.
Volunteers are needed to help deliver the meals. It takes about an hour and volunteers are placed on a rotation. It is a great opportunity for adults, high school students and families. As some of the recipients are homebound, a delicious meal and short visit are the highlight of the week.
If you would like to help fulfill this important need and make someone that is shut-in very happy, please contact Mike Feely at missions@christchurchchatt.org.

NEEDLE ARTS FOR SERVICE
Needle Arts for Service - Tuesdays & Thursdays 9:00 to 4:00 - Room A-3
This group of women share a passion for serving Christ by using their needlework talents to minister to others. It’s members gather weekly for a devotion and sharing time, then quilt, sew, knit, and crochet in fellowship. In service to God’s people within CUMC, the group makes quilts for display around the church during Advent and Easter and prayer shawls and prayer patches for CUMC ministries. To reach out to God’s people outside of the church, the group makes quilts, scarves, lap robes, washcloths, and other items for partnering organizations, including the Angel Tree senior baskets (that CUMC makes), nursing homes, hospice programs, and homeless individuals. Group members also produce items for their own use and for other organizations they support.
Contact Mike Feely at missions@christchurchchatt.org for additional information.
