Testimonial by Parishioner Hilary Lea:
“I grew up at Christ Church, singing in the choir and attending youth group. After I got married, I raised my children here and have been an active volunteer at Christ Church since 2001, serving on many committees, even chaired a few, and on the Vestry. I have met some of my closest friends here, and gotten deep joy from the experience of service in our faith community.
After an emergency procedure recently, I suddenly found myself in a position where I needed others to help me for the first time . It was not comfortable for me to be so much on the receiving end, but I realized I had to accept it.
My adult children helped but they have jobs and busy lives. Into the breach stepped my church community – especially the Altar Guild – who provided me with delicious meals for two weeks. Calls and visits really help combat the isolation I felt, being unable to drive for a month – a lesson I hope I never forget. Calls and emails from the Clergy were uplifting. I felt my church family were 100% there for me in a challenging time and I will never forget it.”
