Warms Nights: CCPC will be participating in the Warm Nights Shelter Program sponsored by Community Ministries from February 5th to the 12th. The program is a collaborative effort of 34 committed church congregations throughout Prince George's County that provide a rotating emergency shelter from mid- November through the end of March each year. It has been in operation since the early 1990s and CCPC was the first church in Bowie to participate in the program.
During our week we will provide a warm place to stay from 7:00 PM until about 6:00 AM for 25 to 30 homeless people. We also will provide them with three meals a day. When the shelter clients arrive they are greeted with a hot hearty dinner. In the morning they get breakfast and we hand them a bagged lunch as they walk out the door. Successful participation in this program requires CCPC volunteers to perform a variety of duties. There are many ways you can get involved. You can sign up to prepare a meal, serve as an overnight host or launder linens. You can help set up Dodds Hall on February 6th before the shelter clients arrive or help transport the cots and equipment to the next church on February 12th. Sign up sheets and instructions are available in the atrium. Even if you cannot participate in any of the Warm Nights duties I encourage you to stop by the church during our Warms Nights week. You will have an opportunity to meet the shelter clients, hear their stories and see how our giving and caring are impacting their lives.

THE APOSTLES’ CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the
Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, died, and was buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic Church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life
everlasting. Amen.
