Dear Members and Friends,
SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP
You are invited to join us for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost August 11th at 9:00am, in person or Zoom. Rev. Charlotte is back and will be leading worship with Sean McMahon our Music Minister. Sermon is titled “Stepping Out of the Boat” from Matthew 14:22-33. Sunday School is available after the first hymn. Worship order attached. Zoom link below. Covid-19 is having a summer island surge so please stay healthy. Masks and hand sanitizer are available in the church and we will keep windows and doors open for good air circulation. https://www.mvtimes.com/2024/07/18/island-hospital-reports-slight-increase-covid-19-cases/
Calling all Chimark Church Choir members. This Sunday after church (10:15) Sean will meet with the choir to practice the choral selection(s). All are welcome to drop in and no past experience necessary.
We are sad to hear of the passing of Susan Murphy. She was on many town boards – Friends of Chilmark Library, Chilmark Finance Committee, Harbor Advisory Committee, etc. She was married to Lynn Murphy, had two sons – the late Lynn, Jr. and Lucas, and was stepmother to Lynn’s children. Recently she was “grandma” to Caitlin and Harrison Kisiel’s two boys. She was smart, strong willed, and a beautiful woman inside and out and will be deeply missed in Chilmark and beyond. May her memory be a blessing to those who knew and loved her.
THE CHILMARK CHURCH CELEBRATION – SEPTEMBER 15th
We are planning an outdoor Celebration event for the church and our invited guests on Sunday, September 15th from 1-3pm. We will share our story of resilience, courage and faithfulness – past, present and future – with food, music and community. Music by Sean McMahon and food by Quitsa Cuisine (Teresa Manning). The church has worked hard over the past 2 years, so it is now time to celebrate that journey together. Though we are a small church on an island this “New Old Church” has a wonderful story to share of hope, strength, light and resistance. This painting, gifted by Allison Derusha in memory of her mother, depicts that story – church doors are always open for welcoming in and for going out in Christ’s service. Invitations will be emailed out shortly.
