A message from the elders – The Elders have discussed the best way forward coming out of this situation with the pandemic. We have constantly monitored the State guidelines and did our best to follow what was being advised. We will continue that procedure. Therefore, we are at a point where we are being told that social distancing and masks are no longer required for our church services. We ask that everyone use common sense regarding their own personal needs on the matter. If you are not comfortable returning to public worship services, please understand that we will be live streaming from now on even after this situation is resolved. If someone decides to continue using a mask and social distancing, we ask everyone to accommodate that decision. Respect for other’s decisions is of great importance. The Elders want to thank everyone for being so patient and understanding during a truly unprecedented event in our nation.

In the love of Christ,

Your Elders

 

Volunteer – If you are looking for an opportunity to become involved, this project may be for you!  We are in need of a volunteer to maintain the photo bulletin board of our members that is in the foyer.  A volunteer is needed to keep the names and photos current as the congregation changes.  See Sonya Ash if you are interested or have questions.                                                                                                                                        Congregational Meal and Birthday Celebration (1st Sunday) – The fellowship meals and birthday celebration have resumed.  The meals will be quarterly (February, May, August, and November) on the 1st Sunday of the month.  Plan to attend with your family, bring your favorite dish or beverage, and clelebrate the birthdays in the congregation. If you and your family or friends would like to host a meal, please sign up on the bulletin board.  Join us on February 6 after the morning services!

 

Brother’s Keeper – The next Brother’s Keeper breakfast will be on Saturday, April 9, 2022.  The breakfast meetings will meet quarterly on the second Saturday (October, January, April, and July).  The men and boys of the congregation are invited to join together to discuss individual needs, congregational matters, and have a devotional.  Plan to join us for coffee and donuts at 9:00 a.m. when these events resume!
