Exciting News!
We all know that life has been disrupted in many ways these last several months. Among several others things we have been anxious to gather again as the body of Christ, the people of faith, and now we have been given approval to start.
This of course comes with great caution as we continue to want to show love from a safe distance to our neighbors and friends.
The latest news from the Conference office is that churches are now allowed to hold in-person worship, but it must be an outdoor service. We are not yet in the place where the conference feels comfortable opening our doors and gathering inside our buildings. In addition we still must keep each family unit socially distanced at 6 feet apart, and masks when that distance cannot be kept, per the CDC guidelines.
Therefore, on Sunday’s beginning August 16, will be offering worship “Under the Oak Tree.”
Our Under the Oak Tree service will begin at 10 a.m.
We invite you to bring a lawn chair, blanket, quilt, whatever might allow you to sit comfortably under the shade of the mighty oak. This will be a shortened service of Music, Scripture and Sermon – but it will be good for those who desire to gather together.
As a note, if you still feel uncomfortable gathering, or the idea of an outdoor service does not appeal to you, you may still worship with us online (which will be posted at the usual 9 o’clock hour).
I hope you will come join us Under the Oak Tree as we gather to worship our God.
Grace & Peace,
Sam
