Ties That Bind: Father's Day is Sunday, June 18 CPC congregants recorded brief tributes to their mothers a few weeks ago for Ties That Bind: now it s dad's turn.

It s a Ties That Bind moment of sharing with one another about those who are still with us or have passed on. This is an opportunity to get to know one another better and honor those whom we love: our dads. To record, use your iphone or Android and search for Voice Memo. Say your name and your father's name and share with us why your dad is so special. Our young ones are welcome and encouraged to participate as well! Send your recording to Caroline Derifaj at or cderifaj@gmail.com. Recordings will also be shared on the Ties That Bind web page at CPC s Ties That Bind (TTB) audio recording ministry, which is patterned after NPR sstorycorps program, was approved by Session in the spring of 2016 as a means of addressing one of the top three priorities established by our congregation- to be more intentional in our effort to connect with one another, our own community and the world.
