Staying Connected in Isolation Podcast Messages

Messages from Church Leadership

We’re Rolling! Gathered Worship: Safe and Soaring!

May 21, 2020 • Gerrit Dawson and Chris Phillips

Last Sunday, we gathered for worship and worked through the newness of masks and social distancing. The joy was palpable from singing and praying in the same room. It was great to be back. So join us! No need to sign up. Just come for 9am Contemporary and 11am Classic Reformed. As of now, there is no gathered Sunday school or nursery, but we will let you know as soon as this is figured out. For the foreseeable future, we will continue to follow guidelines regarding wearing masks, using the North Blvd entrance, and sitting in designated distancing areas by household groups.

Two Wonderful and Weird Services This Sunday

May 14, 2020 • Rev. Dr. Gerrit Dawson

Wonderful because we can be together in our Sanctuary. Weird because we have to wear masks and continue with those annoying social distancing practices. Service times have changed to 9 am and 11 am. For those worshiping in the Sanctuary, plan to arrive early and use the North Boulevard entrance. We're asking everyone to please wear a mask. Both services will continue to be livestreamed. There will be no Sunday school or nursery provided.
