We have good news!
As reported in The Huntington County Tab,
Indiana Gov. Eric J. Holcomb announced on Friday, May 1, the Back On Track Indiana plan to safely open the economy and remain vigilant about protecting Hoosiers’ health and wellbeing. Hoosiers 55 and over and those with high-risk health conditions should remain home whenever possible. The state also recommends that residents wear face coverings in public settngs and residents should continue to practice social distancing and good hygiene.
Beginning May 8, religious services may convene inside places of worship, again with proper protections and social distancing.
We will continue to honor, obey, and submit to the governing authorities over us (Romans 13:1-5; Hebrews 13:17; 1 Peter 2:13-14).
We will offer an abbreviated and modified worship service at the church on May 10. We expect those in attendance will practice social distancing and safe hygiene. Anyone who feels ill for any reason should stay at home.
We will also ask the “most at-risk…” of our congregation (ti5 and older and those with high-risk health conditions) to stay at home as well.
We are doing this because we love you. A distinctive of our church has been our emphasis on “Loving God More and Loving Others Better.”
I will continue to make a video available each week with a brief update and a short message or Bible study.
Change… while a normal part of life… is never easy. We have been challenged to rethink everything we once took for granted and thought to be normal. One does not have to be a Bible scholar to see how God’s people have overcome difficult times in the past. We will persevere and we will come out of this as better followers of Jesus.
“Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith” (Hebrews 12:1-2).
Love, Prayers, and Blessings!
