Conversations on Marriage

On three Wednesday evenings,  Jan. 18,  Feb. 1 & 15, 2012, we are continuing our discussion and discernment begun last Spring of  how we at CHPC are responding to the shifting understanding and practice of marriage today.  The first of these, on Jan. 18 was informative reflection and discussion of biblical theological perspectives on marriage.  Please watch this space for details of subsequent discussion topics, and read on for more information: more details…

Children are always welcome in the sanctuary, but for families wishing to worship with their infant children and would like more privacy, there is an enclosed Family Room located on the third floor which overlooks the sanctuary and is furnished with rocking chairs, a crib, toys, crayons, etc.
