Dear Members, (Date: 3/16/2020)
After much consultation with our District President, neighboring pastors, the Elders, and along with the increasing stress of the Federal Government for safety we will be making some changes to our life as a congregation.
Moving forward we will no longer have Sunday School for our Children. We will also not gather for our Sunday Morning Study. We will also not host our Midweek meals for the remaining Midweek Services.
Our District President is recommending caution as we gather for our corporate services, but he is recommending that we still gather. The neighboring pastors in our circuit and district, the Elders, and I agree that we should not yet give up meeting together. However, recommendations are being made that we make changes to our life together for the sake of caution. A possible change could be having separate services for different age groups. WE ARE NOT MAKING THIS CHANGE TO OUR LIFE, YET! BUT, other nearby congregation are making this change, it is being recommended, and this is a possibility for us in the near future given what we currently know about Covid-19.
Continue to pray that our God ends the course of this Virus soon.
I am sure, given the rapid pace of information, I will be writing you again soon.
In Christ,
Pastor Beltz
