Don't forget, Daylight Saving Time begins in the wee hours of Sunday morning, March 14. Be sure to set your clock ahead one hour (Spring forward) when you go to sleep Saturday night. 

The Middle School & Sr. High Youth Groups will meet for an extra half hour this Sunday, March 14, 5:00-6:30 P.M., to prepare for the Stations of the Cross service the following Sunday.

The Youth Groups will present a service based on the traditional Stations of the Cross service Sunday afternoon, March 21, in the sanctuary. Our service would more accurately be called "Scenes of the Cross" since we will not move around the sanctuary, but instead twelve Biblical scenes, from the trial to the crucifixion, will be represented by the Youth. Donations for the Youth Group ministry are not required, but any who wish to give will have an opportunity to do so at the conclusion of the service.

The Fellowship & Hospitality Committee has graciously agreed to host a covered dish dinner in the fellowship hall at 5:00 P.M., to be followed by the service in the sanctuary.

FOR THE COVERED DISH:

If your last name begins with A-I, please bring a meat or casserole dish to share.

If your last name begins with J-R, please bring a veggie or salad.

If your last name begins with S-Z, please bring a dessert or bread

Coffee, tea, and water will be provided. (The alphabetical assignments will be rotated for future events so the same people are not always asked to bring the same thing.)

There will be no sign up sheet; just please bring your dish by 4:45 for the dinner. Thank you!

The Church Book Club meets the Third Thursday of each month, 7:00-9:00 P.M. at members' homes. The next meeting will be Thursday, March 18 at the home of Don and Judy McMahon. The book for March is The Lost Symbol by Dan K. Brown. Call Juanita (458-5723) or Bettie Slusser (458-4181) with any questions. (The book for April, when the group will meet at the home of Linda Lorah, will be Stones into Schools by Greg Mortenson.)

The Outreach and Evangelism Committee has placed a series of four books in our Church library. These books are intended to help those who are grieving and help in the process of healing over the loss of a loved one. Below are the titles of each book and the suggested time during the healing process to read them.

If you would like to receive, via e-mail, the text of sermons that are preached at CBPC, just send an e-mail request to the pastor at haregrog@bellsouth.net, and you will be added to the subscription list! (Of course, you can always just log onto the Sermons page of this website.)

At www.presbycc.org/packets.htm you will find the list of actions taken at the most recent meetings of Presbytery for your information, and to aid in making reports to session. This summary will be our continuing practice subsequent to each meeting of Presbytery. It is part of our effort to communicate with our churches more fully and to aid in commissioner reports to sessions.

Thank you for you involvement in, and support of, Presbytery.

When searching on line for something, most of us use a search engine such as Google or Yahoo. If you will use www.GoodSearch.com, you will be earning CBPC one penny for each individual search you make. It's almost as easy as any other search engine, just with one extra step:

1. Write "Carolina Beach Presbyterian Church" in the space that asks for your chosen charity

2. Click "verify"

3. Then proceed as you normally would, typing your search information into the space that asks for it. When you click on that search, another penny is added to the kitty. The more of us who do this every time we would normally use a search engine, the more money the good people of Goodsearch will donate to CBPC.
