Stewardship 2018: Ingathering Sunday

 
On Sunday, August 27th, our entire parish family gathered to worship and thank God for His many blessings. 
 
 
In response to God’s bountiful gifts, we offered our 2018 financial commitments to Holy Family and floated candles in the font to represent our journey together.
 
 
The commitment cards were blessed by the Reverend Bob Dekker who celebrated Eucharist with us that day.
 
 
Following the worship service, we gathered for food and fellowship in the parish hall. Holy Family’s rector search committee continues its work to discern the next steps in our transition. You may follow our rector search journey by clicking HERE or contacting the church office. admin@hfec.org

Youth Group: Trust V

 
Nine of HFEC’s youth group members along with four visiting youth from St. Christopher’s in Carmel met for a cookout fellowship Sunday evening.  HFEC has extended an invitation to St. Christopher’s youth for our gatherings as their parish is also in transition of rector and youth ministers simultaneously.
 
 
The group focused on communication skills and trust-building using Mobile Team Challenge low ropes course.  Participants balanced on 3-inch high beams and helped support one another crossing an increasing span up to nine feet wide.  This activity requires direct eye contact, open communication, and a high level of trust from both partners.
 
 
A most successful evening activity was finished out with Compline led by Sam Cleaver assisted by Mikaila Blake.  The next evening gathering will be held on September 17th from 5:30-8:00 PM. Please contact Youth Director Marty Blake for more information about Holy Family’s Youth Group program. mblake@hfec.org

Confirmation Celebration 2017

 
During our 10 AM Service, four Holy Family members were recognized and blessed as recent Confirmands in the Episcopal Church. They were presented with a certificate signed by Diocese of Indianapolis Bishop The Rt. Rev. Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows, Holy Family Deacon The Rev. Cathy Scott, and Confirmation instructor Bob Murray. They also received personal copies of the Book of Common Prayer. To close the special liturgy, all members in attendance placed their hands on the people in front of them as a traditional symbol of “laying on of hands,” offering congregational support throughout their spiritual journeys. We also celebrated a special hospitality with cake and ice cream. For more information about being Confirmed in the Episcopal Church, please contact The Reverend Cathy Scott at cscott@hfec.org.
