 -New Sunday Service Format

  • Because exposure to singing over extended periods in enclosed spaces is known to be a significant source of Covid-19 spread, we are reordering service.
    • We are also adding HEPA filtration to cleanse return air and UV-C purification to cleanse supply air in the sanctuary heating and air conditioning system.
  • Service will begin with meditative instrumental music as a time of prayer and preparation.
    • Slides of Scriptures, requests, and prayer guidance will be on the screen for those who wish to utilize them.
    • Next, there will be a time of pastoral prayer for needs presented during the week.
    • Followed by the sermon (and Communion on the first Sunday of the month).
    • Concluding with a time of praise and worship.
      • We understand that singing with a mask on will be uncomfortable or impossible for some and, we also understand that being in an enclosed space where some will sing without a mask on will be uncomfortable for others.
      • So, there will be time after the sermon (or, after communion on the first Sunday of the month) for those uncomfortable being in an enclosed space where some will sing without masks to be dismissed.
    • Closing prayer/dismissal.
  • Services are tentatively scheduled for 8 and 11 AM to allow sufficient time for facility cleaning and air purification/exchange.
  • There will be no nursery or children’s classes during the services.
  • Service times and service order will evolve over time as changes are deemed necessary.
  • Online, parking lot broadcast, and streaming options will remain available.

As with everything else in these trying times, let's do our best to live in love and grace toward each other. We may hold diverse opinions regarding the pandemic, but we serve on Lord, Jesus Christ, who loves us equally and longs for His children to live in understanding and love toward each other.

During this time...

Let’s make sure we stay in touch with each other. The best way to shine in the middle of a crisis is to care for our neighbors. Check in on each other – a simple phone call, email, text, or Facebook message can brighten someone’s day. It also provides us with the opportunity to make sure their needs are met and that they are doing well. If you find someone with a need you cannot personally meet, please contact us.

The words of the Apostle Paul are fitting: “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience…And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity” (Col 3:12, 14).
