Our Fellowship
We offer monthly breakfasts between the two Sunday services as well as a weekly coffee hour after each service. At Christmas, there is a “Breakfast with Santa” in Dove Hall. CHS also sponsors activities such as game nights, parish picnics, and an outing to a baseball game to give parishioners a chance to connect with friends as well as get to know other people and have fun!
Service Auction
The Service Auction has been a key source of fellowship and fundraising for over forty years. This major event brings the entire church community together and offers many opportunities for participants to volunteer in service to our church.
Most of the items in the live and silent auctions are donated by parishioners and bought by parishioners. The donations are often offers of hospitality - summer garden parties, surf and turf barbecues, behind-the-scenes tours, afternoon teas, old fashioned canning class, homemade wood-oven pizza parties, and so many other creative offerings – that foster tremendous fellowship that is enjoyed by parishioners in the year ahead.

“We Three Kings” House Blessings
We celebrate Epiphany, the manifestation of Christ in the world, in an extraordinary way by blessing the homes of parishioners and friends. This congregation-wide event energizes our community and enfolds newcomers. Volunteer drivers chauffeur our rector along twelve neighborhood routes. In 2024, over a quarter of the 200 blessings were for the homes of neighbors and friends of the parish, offering gentle evangelism to our local community.
