Last year Christ Church — the parish — turned 300, making it the oldest Episcopal church in the diocese of Connecticut. This Saturday Christ Church — the building — turns 150. To celebrate, the church will host a special 5 p.m. service led by Bishop James Curry to rededicate the church building. (Remember: This is SATURDAY.) For the liturgically minded, there will be prayers from the 1789 Book of Common Prayer and a number of 19th-century hymns. Following the service there will be a dinner in the adjoining Parish House for the low, low, low price of $15 per person. They're still taking reservations; call 375-4447.
Christ Church has been a steadfast friend to OSNA and the neighborhood for many years, so please do come out to help Father Bob and many of your neighbors celebrate this important milestone in the life of the neighborhood.
