Hello, everyone. This has been a week of turmoil for our city and country. For our church community, we are continuing work on our plans for the reopening of the campus. This week’s Board of Stewards meeting again focused on the variety of issues that are involved in successfully opening in this pandemic climate. I cannot begin to express the pride that I have in the members of the Board, the church staff, the Building Reopening Task Force, and all others involved. This has been a very deliberate process to ensure the safety of all who enter.

God used this simple act to show our girls how to love our neighbors during this unprecedented time, and they learned that something even as small as a sandwich can make a difference. Ellie and Anna said it felt great to do something for others. I love Mister Roger’s quote that his mom would say when bad things happened, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” I’m thankful we had a small way to help & use our hands and feet to serve God! 

Greetings to all. I pray everyone had an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend. The Board continues to work through the current issues with prayer and your support. This week’s meeting continued to address the financial condition of the church and the necessary protocols for the reopening of the campus, especially the opportunity for in-person worship.
