Message From Father Karl

On Sunday, Ezekiel will remind us that the past does not bind us, and with God, renewal is always possible. The psalmist describes the renewal as humility and trust in God’s mercy. In the gospel, we return to the vineyard as Jesus tells a short parable about two children and their father's request. One refuses but eventually goes into the vineyard. The other agrees but never follows through.


It will be an exciting Sunday as we gather to ponder these lessons and hear our “Deacon in Training,” who will be preaching.


Until Sunday, when we will gather around God’s table,

Fr. Karl

CCI Choir

Our Choral Scholars from last year are all returning to the choir this fall. Shiva and Jayshing are Haverford High School Seniors; Mikey is a HHS Junior and Emilio is a West Chester University Junior majoring in Music. 

Except for our former Bass, we are very pleased to welcome back all our "seasoned" singers: Lori, Rebecca, Joy, and Kent. Please welcome Michael Zubert, our new Bass. Mike teaches music at Springfield High School (Delaware County). He is a graduate of Westminster Choir College (Princeton, NJ). He is married and has two children.



A number of Mike's teaching proteges are in the cast of Players Club of Swarthmore's production of "Dear Evan Hansen," in which Mikey Gibson, our Tenor Choral Scholar, is one of two leads. It's a world of many connections.

Dear Evan Hansen


Dear Evan Hansen is a Tony Award-winning stage musical about Evan Hansen, a high school senior with severe social anxiety who accidentally gets caught up in a web of lies after a classmate dies by suicide. The Players Club of Swarthmore is presenting the play and our own choral scholar, Mikey Gibson, will play the part of Evan Hansen, the lead role, on September 18 (7:30 p.m.), 20 (2:00 p.m.), 26(7:30 p.m.), 27 (2:00 p.m.) and Oct. 2 (7:30 p.m.)
