IN PERSON WORSHIP SERVICES HAVE RESUMED
WELCOME back!
Dear Friends,
It is hard to believe that we have not worshiped together since mid-March. But our reopening team has been hard at work over the past few weeks and we have now resumed in person worship as of SUNDAY OCTOBER 18 at 9:30am.
Once again, I remind you that things will be different. We are asking you enter through the side doors off the patio. The patio will have markings six feet apart. You will be asked to come forward to have your temperature taken. Enter the sanctuary through the side doors, you will notice that the pews are marked six feet apart, move in towards the center aisle. Your usual pew may not be available. Please fill the center two sections of the pews first (this will aid in the sanitizing of the sanctuary between our service and the Koreans).
Wear face coverings at all times and maintain social distancing. There will be no printed bulletins but you can get an order of worship on your phone using the QR codes posted at entry points. The ushers will not be collecting an offering but there will be a basket placed in the narthex and you can place your offering in the basket as you leave the sanctuary. At the end of the service you will be dismissed by rows, starting at the back of the sanctuary, and as you exit through the narthex doors, onto the patio in front of the church, please maintain social distancing.
We will not have a Fellowship time but you can visit with friends on the patio while maintain social distancing.
I want to thank Brenda Roa, Liz Heacock, Ashleigh Kelly and the rest of her team for getting us ready to reopen.
I am looking for to seeing you all and worshiping together.
Blessings,
Doug Williams
Senior Pastor
OCTOBER SERMON THEMES
October 4 Exodus 20:1-4, 12-20 and Matthew 21:33-46
God gives the Ten Commandments to Israel. Jesus tells the parable of the landowner who rented out his vineyard to some unworthy, violent tenants.
October 11 Matthew 22:1-14
Lacking a competent event planner, a king keeps trying to throw a good wedding reception, resulting in a mix of consequences for his guests.
October 18 Matthew 22:15-22
Seeking to entrap Jesus, critics ask him about whether it is permitted or not to pay taxes to Caesar.
October 25 Matthew 22:34-46
Jesus is challenged by Pharisees to identify the greatest commandments, by Sadducees to defend the resurrection.
The mission of the United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
As United Methodists, we have an obligation to bear a faithful Christian witness to Jesus Christ, the living reality at the center of the Church’s life and witness. To fulfill this obligation, we reflect critically on our biblical and theological inheritance, striving to express faithfully the witness we make in our own time.
