Join the Usher Team!
Looking for a way to get involved at CCBNY on Sundays? Join the Usher Team! You will volunteer once a month and the benefits are great: meet new people, help parishioners feel welcome and find their seats, show children the way to Church School, hand out bulletins and count and secure offertory donations. During holy days, ushers are important to ensure parishioners and guests are comfortable.
We welcome everyone to join us - even young people with busy schedules (if you can't make a shift simply send Karen an email)! Please contact Karen Carpenter at 914-667-1974 or sheerkaren@aol.com for more information or to sign up.

The Fall Short Series - Jesus as a Teacher/You as Student - Coming in October!
Many of the people Jesus taught were from the countryside, uneducated and illiterate. For them he used Parables – examples, riddles, metaphors that challenged them to consider God’s message as it pertained to them. With allusions to fig trees, leaven, sowing seeds, hosting a wedding feast, a body robbed, beaten and forsaken, lost sheep, and the return of a prodigal son, among others, he taught them and teaches us to understand God’s gifts. He used Parables as ways not only to understand but also to challenge how his listeners would lead their lives. How convincing are these Parables today?
The Fall Short Series will explore Parables by, guess what (!!), reading and discussing sixteen Parables. Just as those Jesus taught, no contemporary analytic text will get in the way of our understanding for ourselves what the Parables mean to us in 2014.
John O’Neil, Jody Maier, Hondi Brasco, and Warren Ilchman will take responsibility for the discussions in the Crispell Lounge after the 10 o”clock service. The Parables for each session are available online and copies will be available in the Undercroft starting this week.
