Beginning Wednesday, October 1st, the new address for the CGS prayer chain is cgsprayerchain@gmail.com  Lynne Rivera, our parish nurse, is assuming responsibility for the prayer chain.

Send your prayer requests to the new address and mention whether you want the information disseminated to other members of the prayer chain. If you want your prayer request to be shared only with Pastor Eva, state that in your email or call the Church Office and state your request for limited dissemination.

For several years, confidentiality of health information has been an important issue for hospitals and other health care facilities. Pastor Eva and other church staff cannot access patient admissions. Therefore, it’s imperative that you notify the Church Office if a loved one is hospitalized, including the facility name.
