The Foundry
Forging a bold, welcoming voice for Christ Episcopal Church.
We help our neighbors feel seen, included, and invited—in person and online.

What we do
  • Share the story of our church with clear, consistent communication on the website, Facebook, and the newsletter.
  • ​Create signs, flyers, and posts that reflect our values of welcome, inclusion, and compassion.
  • Design hospitable spaces like the Welcoming Narthex Project so first impressions say, “you belong here.”
  • Plan and host events that bring our parish and Cape Girardeau together.
  • Make it simple to serve with easy online sign-ups for Coffee Hour, Food Pantry, Worship Team, and special events.

How we practice evangelism
Canon Whitney taught us that real evangelism is about practicing love, building trust, and reducing fear.

The Foundry aims to be relational, compassionate, inclusive, authentic, and joyful—the kind of good news people can feel.
Recent wins
  • Launched online sign-ups for all ministries and events, plus a QR code in the narthex.
  • Kicked off the Welcoming Narthex Project to make our first space warm and accessible.
  • Refreshed our newsletter flow so information is easy to find and act on.
  • Organized and supported community events that foster connection and care.
  • Expanded our web presence so sermons, evening prayer, and updates are easy to access.
Get involved
There’s a place for every kind of helper.

If you love tech or design: writing, editing, photography, short videos, website updates, social posts, print layouts.
If you prefer people and hospitality: greeting at the door, Coffee Hour hosting, event setup and cleanup, story collecting, welcoming new folks.
No experience needed—just a willing heart. Training and simple templates provided.

Our commitment
We are building a church culture that is safe and welcoming for LGBTQ+ neighbors, people with disabilities, neurodivergent friends, folks experiencing homelessness, and anyone who has not always found church to be a safe place. Your voice matters here.
