WELCOME TO WORSHIP Welcome to worship at Carmichael Presbyterian
Church. As God’s
people, worship is what we are called to do. Whether together or
apart,
near or far, God’s people are called to be the church and to
worship the
God of love incarnate in Jesus Christ.
So join us, as together we navigate worship, life, and ministry
during
this season of COVID-19, seeking community in both familiar
and
unexpected places. Our 10:00 a.m. live stream worship service
blends
traditional and contemporary styles and includes pre-recorded
videos
which provide an opportunity for members of our faith community
to
participate in new ways.
May the peace and wholeness of Christ be with you always,
~Pastor Keith and Pastor Ivan

of iso-
lation, job transition, personal loss, or anxiety in the time of
sheltering
-in-place, consider asking for a Stephen Minister. CPC’s
trained, car-
ing Stephen Ministers will listen and walk alongside you as you
deal
with life’s challenges. Contact one of our Stephen Leaders to
see
whether Stephen Ministry is the answer for you or call the

Stephen
Ministers are trained to provide confidential care over the
phone.

breakfast and
host during the four hours. We have in place all safety
protocols recom-
mended by the Health Department – gloves, N95 masks, sanitizer
and dis-
tancing (tables are set up in McMillen Hall six feet apart and
only one person
is assigned to each table).
If you think you can feel safe in this environment, please call
Bill Dunn 916-
484-6631 or Barbara Farley 916-485-4309 to volunteer. Shifts are
from 7:30
a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Please pray for these
folks who typically are un-
