Dear People of St. Christopher’s
We're looking forward to this week's Kick-off Sunday, and getting back into the regular fall routine.
As we announced last week, we've hired an interim rector to lead us while we search for a permanent rector. We'll make a full announcement next week, and they will be officially joining us October 10th.
We are thankful to those who are stepping in to help until the interim rector begins. Rev. Dr. Bob Wyatt will supply each Sunday in September, and Rev. Stacy Alan from Brent House at the University of Chicago will supply on October 3.
If you have pastoral care needs between now and October 10, please contact the church office or one of the wardens: Jenn Urso and Deb Maue
As a reminder, we'll have more information coming soon on the formation of the search committee, including the process for parishioners to express interest in serving on the committee.
Thank you for your continued support and prayers through this process.
Your wardens,
Jenn Urso and Deb Maue
Zoom/Streaming Suspended Immediately.
Join us Sunday for in-person worship at 8:00, 9:30, or 10:30! We are pausing our practice of zooming and streaming our liturgies while the vestry evaluates our needs and resources for technology in worship. During the pause, we will be back to using the usual altar, the pulpit, and the lectern.
As you have probably seen, Cook County is now rated as having "substantial spread" of Covid-19. We are going to follow the recommendations of the CDC and every other major public health organization and ask all people over the age of two to wear masks indoors at church, regardless of vaccination status. We will resume the practice we briefly had of allowing vaccinated lectors to unmask while at the lectern. The rest of the liturgy should continue to look as it has these recent weeks. The vestry is consulting with physicians within the parish to develop a fuller plan for the coming weeks.
