Church Periodical Club
Founded in 1888, this under-publicized group raises money to support seminarians in our diocese, particularly through supporting the purchase of books, which is a vital, and expensive part of seminary training. You can help us support our seminarians by observing CPC in your local parish. More information and dates for CPC Sunday are listed under the ECW General Calendar link and in the ECW yearbook.
CPC offerings can be mailed to the CPC Chair:
Cristy Jordan, 90 Walnut Drive, Ellabell, GA 31308
Our Prayer
Bless 0 Lord, The Church Periodical Club, that it may be an instrument for the spread of your Word throughout the world. Grant to its officers wisdom and patience, to its members perseverance and the spirit of sharing that asks no return. Bring more to take part in its mission and ministry. Bless our gifts and those who receive them, to the enrichment of individual lives, that we all may be servants of the risen Lord. Amen.
