Celebrate the Holidays at Cedar Ridge
The Holidays are coming and we have lots of great things planned – seasonal festivities, ways to take action for justice and mercy, and times for quiet reflection. You can read all about our Advent series and other events by clicking here. So take a look and save the dates.

Makers Circle Gathering: Sunday November 9 (11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.) in the barn

Are you a crafter, artist, maker, or just creatively curious? Join us after the service on Sunday November 9. You can bring a project from home to work on, get creative with our supplies, or join in our group project – we’ll be making origami Christmas decorations for a nursing home.  We’ll have plenty of conversation with each other.  Any questions? contact Kate Thomas at creativekate@gmail.com.

Journey: Thursday, Nov 13, 7:00 – 8:30 p.m. via zoom
The Journey discussion group is an opportunity to explore our vision and values and what life in our community looks like at Cedar Ridge. Whether you are new to our community, want to become a member, or would like to simply learn more about Cedar Ridge, Journey is open to everyone. This time we are offering Journey as one midweek session via zoom and if you would like to attend, please email Briana Teller at brianat@crcc.org and we’ll send you the zoom link and materials.

Annual Meeting and Soup Potluck: Sunday Nov, 16, 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
This is always an important time for our community when we come together to discuss the practical business of our life together and elect new Board members. We’ll look back on our finances over the past fiscal year and review our facilities and property maintenance. We’ll also discuss our recent staff transitions and upcoming hiring opportunities and look forward to the year ahead. Everyone is welcome. Bring a favorite soup to share and we’ll have lots of tasty bread on hand. Childcare will be provided. 

 

Vote to elect members to our Board of Trustees
This year our Board of Trustees is seeking to elect one new member for a 3-year term and re-elect one current member for another year. You can review the candidates here and Cedar Ridge members will be able to vote at our Annual Meeting after the service on Sunday Nov 16. 

Winter Coat Drive: Now thru Sunday, Nov 23
We are now collecting new (and clean, very gently used) winter coats, boots, hats and gloves for children aged 5-10 to benefit families in need at Greencastle Elementary School. Please leave donations in the boxes by the Welcome Table in the lobby on Sundays, or in the yellow and black Greencastle donations boxes outside the front glass doors of the main church building at any time between now and Sunday November 23.

Thanksgiving Food Collection: Sunday, Nov 23
Families in the local schools we support are struggling more than ever with the cost of nutritious food. In this climate of fear and austerity that is disproportionately impacting the most vulnerable, we want to extend more kindness and generosity and deepen our commitment to support these families. On the Sunday before Thanksgiving, we’ll have the opportunity to bring a bag of much needed groceries to the service. You can sign up on our website to let us know how many bags you plan to bring. You can also see a list of what to buy (we want to make sure the food we give is appropriate for the families). During the service that day, we’ll be hearing from some of the care workers we partner with at the schools. After the service, they will take the food for distribution to the families the following day ready for Thanksgiving.

Help Decorate for Christmas: Sunday, Nov 23, after the service
Get an early shot of festive spirit by joining us after the service to help decorate for the Christmas season. Lots of fun tasks for all ages and a light lunch will be provided along with hot cider, mulled wine, and hot chocolate!
