Sheltering, but Still Serving

3/18/2020

I have placed myself under quarantine because I came back from the conference with what I hope is merely an obnoxious cold.  I see conflicting ideas of what the symptoms of COVID 19 are.  Anyway, my office is, for the moment, in my home.
I will be exploring doing worship on Sunday as a live Facebook stream which is then uploaded to this website.   I will strive to offer that service at 10:30 AM on Sunday, our regular time.  Of course, if every church on the east coast tries to do the same thing, the system may be overwhelmed!  Internet providers have indicated that they are up to the challenge, but we have to be prepared for glitches.

There are ongoing concerns that come before us as navigate these new ways of being the church.  I went to the office today to change our greeting (something I couldn't do remotely, apparently) and get the password for our church email account so that I can keep in touch.  When I went, I made sure to take food for our little pantry.  If you run errands, please remember that little ministry!  We have been told that the needs are only going to increase.  

And, please remember to support the church financially.  Perhaps you can arrange to pay through on-line banking, if you do that.  Or send a check by mail.  At the moment, Michelle still plans to be in the office on Monday and Friday mornings.  I will return to the office when I am past this illness.

Here I am on Sunday morning, the 19th of April, together in spirit with our congregation, and together with Micki and Mark by watching the three parts of the Easter service, with this week's liturgy in front of me. Just now catching up with the updates on other parts of our website. It seems somehow appropriate in this topsy turvy world to participate in whatever way is available and whatever way I can manage at the time. Thank you.

Weekly Worship Services

We continue to be mindful of the dangers of this pandemic, so we are not having in person worship services. You may join us on Facebook each week , Sunday morning at 10:30 AM, or watch the service later on Facebook. The services are also connected to this website by sometime on Monday in the worship section.
