Sign up for photos for the New Pictorial Directory

We need EVERYONE in the parish to sign up to get their pictures taken. Photographers from Universal Church Directories will be coming Thursday to Saturday, February 13, 14 and 15, and February 27, 28 and March 1, 2025. For participating you will receive a complimentary 8 x 10 portrait and a church directory. You will have an opportunity to purchase other family portraits if you wish, but there is no cost to get your picture taken and no obligation to buy photos in order to be in the CEC directory. Look for the directory table in the Gazebo to sign up. For questions contact Julianne Reeves (210-410-5721) or Gretchen Duggan gretchend@cecsa.org. You may sign up on line too:

• Click on the desired date, find the time you want, add the required info, then click "Schedule Appointment." If you have more than six family members being photographed, please reserve two consecutive appointments.

SUNDAY, MARCH 2: Mardi Gras Jazz Mass and Gumbo Lunch

Don’t miss out on the annual CEC Mardi Gras party. The 9 & 11 a.m. celebrations will feature a lively jazz mass. Following the 11 a.m. service we will have a delicious lunch of gumbo, rice, tossed salad, and bread pudding in the Parish Hall. Lunch is $8/adults and $4/children with RSVP. NEW THIS YEAR – if you attend the early service and cannot come back for lunch, get your gumbo to go! With an RSVP you can take home a steaming cup of gumbo for $5/cup.
