WEEKLY NOTES
Loaves and Fish
Every Sunday in the Servery from 8:45 a.m. to 9:15 a.m.
Our Loaves and Fish feeding ministries are growing! As we continue providing much needed food to our friends and neighbors through our Blessing Box on Church Street and through the Victims Services Unit at the courthouse, we will be beginning a weekly feeding program for the students at Bishop State Community College. We have recently learned that this is a great need. Each Sunday we will be making 100 sack meals per week right before church. If you have questions or need information, please contact Deacon Pratt at prattpaterson@gmail.com.
Service of the Simple Presence
Resumes on Wednesday, September 16 at 5:15 p.m.
This year, when possible, the lessons for this service will commemorate Saints of the Episcopal Church. We begin with Ninian, Bishop, Missionary to Scotland.
Rally Day
Sunday, September 13
Join us as we kick-off our 2026-2027 program year.
We are working on publishing a printed directory. For everyone who has provided a photo, there will be pictures. If you have not sent a photo, you have until August 31 to send one to the Cathedral office at office@christchurchcathedralmobile.org. We will add individual and family photos.
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Our upstairs Children’s Chapel space has been transformed into The Atrium for our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd class. Sabrina has put in long hours to prepare a loving space for our children to grow their relationship with God. The Atrium is open for children ages 3 through grade 3. This Sunday, they will be looking at the liturgical colors of the church and their meaning. We are currently in the (growing) season, so our liturgical color is green. We look forward to our children growing closer to the Good Shepherd and learning about our church and their role in participating in the liturgy. If you have any questions, please contact Sabrina Evans. Open House on Rally Day, September 13
Catechesis for Fun Club
We are excited to announce our Fun Club group, grades 4 through 7, will be invited, beginning Rally Day, to join a class that will also be held during the first half of worship. All of our students may join the procession and follow their cross to Sunday School. We are looking for teachers and assistants to assist each Sunday with both classes. Sign-up sheets are on the ministry table, and an online sign-up is in the weekly email and on our website.
Vestry Nominating Committee
Meets on Tuesdays, September 22, 29, and October 6
Please speak with the members of the nominating committee and give them names of those you would like to have considered for vestry. You may submit names by phone or email. It is not necessary for you to tell those you are suggesting for vestry that you are doing so. The Nominating Committee is charged with presenting a slate for vestry elections in December, as well as a slate of delegates to our diocesan convention in February of 2027. Annual Parish Meeting with Vestry and Convention Delegate Elections is on Sunday, December 6. The Vestry Nominating Committee is made up of the six retiring Vestry members; Cartledge W. Blackwell III, Bruce E. Rockstad, Charlotte B. Taylor, Jane Bartlett P. Nenstiel, Elissa E. Watkins; and six who are appointed by the Dean.
BayLights at Beckwith

Christ Church Cathedral sponsors the Friday Night Cookout. Leigh Rendfrey spoke with us last Sunday about supporting Beckwith. Look for more information on BayLights on the Beckwith website: beckwithal.com/baylights. We hope to see everyone there.
Planned Giving: The Legacy Society
Remembering Christ Church Cathedral in your will is a powerful act of faith and stewardship. It helps to insure that the ministry you care about in your lifetime can continue to bless future generations.
