My Friends in Christ,
This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, the day the Holy Spirit came rushing in with wind and fire and filled ordinary people with extraordinary grace. Pentecost reminds us that God is always creating something new among us, often in ways we do not expect.
This week, that good news will become beautifully tangible as we welcome a baby girl into the waters of baptism. In baptism, we celebrate that she already belongs to God and that the Holy Spirit is at work in her life from the very beginning. We will promise to surround her with love, prayer, and faith as she grows.
There is something especially fitting about baptizing a child on Pentecost. The same Spirit that moved through the early Church still moves among us now, breathing hope into old hearts and new life into the world. What a joy it is to witness that promise together!
In Christ’s Peace,
Christine+

Safeguarding Training at ECCLT - A Note from Jesse Johnson, Office Administrator
I am pleased to share that I have been certified as a Safeguarding Trainer for the Episcopal Diocese of Texas! What this means is that not only now can I schedule training for anyone who would like to be certified, but you can also complete your live training with me right here at ECCLT! I am in a unique position that enables me to help folks with all sides of the training and answer any questions you may have, as I also serve as the Safeguarding Records Administrator for our church.
I am currently working through my database to see who needs what- re-certification, finishing an online course, a live training, etc. Once I sort through my master list, I am going to host a live training at ECCLT so that we can get everyone who needs a live training certified and registered with the diocese.
What I need from you: if you would like to be trained for a certain ministry, please reach out to me so that I can schedule your online courses. If you are unsure if you're trained or in need of re-certification and would like to volunteer in some capacity (pastoral team, Sunday school, etc.), please reach out to me as well and I can provide you with that information.
If you hold a key code that allows you access to the church, you will need to be trained. I have a list of those of you that have keys and I will reach out to the members that will need to complete what is known as a "Keyholders Training." Many of you will be within regulation based on your current Safeguarding status, so I will only reach out to those that will need to complete the course.
Once every person has completed their online courses, I will then schedule a live training so please stay tuned for that date in the near future. I am hoping to hold a live class a few times a year so if your needs change, I will be able to accommodate them.
Thank you all in advance as I navigate my new training certification and I look forward to meeting with you all. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any question that you might have at [email protected].
