CtR will be hosting The Basics, starting Tuesday, April 23rd at 11:30am. This is a 5-week informal class for caregivers and parents of children from birth to age 3. Every Tuesday during the program, we will introduce a new “basic” (see the Five Basics listed above, or at https://boston.thebasics.org). Do you know of a parent that would benefit from this program? Please invite them! It is free and there will be a lunch provided. For more information or to register, email Sydney at foreveredeemed@gmail.com.

Alpha with Janis & David

Everyone should have a chance to explore the Christian faith, ask questions and share their point of view. The Alpha class gives you the opportunity to do that! These classes will start Thursday, April 25th at 6:30pm, and will meet weekly on Thursdays. Do you know someone who would be interested in attending the Alpha Classes? Contact Deacon David at david@christtheredeemer.org, or Janis at janiscampbell58@gmail.com for more info or check out http://alphausa.org/

Looking forward to worshipping with you all on Sunday!
