31 May, 2020 – Advent Announcements

RETURNING TO CHURCH – NO LIVE/IN-PERSON WORSHIP YET, BUT WE ARE GETTING CLOSER!

The Church Council has created a Subcommittee called ACTS (Advent Coronavirus Team of Safety), and we are considering all that we can, in order for us to safely return to worship in person. As many facets as possible are being reviewed: The Government’s Orders and Suggestions, Including the CDC; North Carolina and local trends; How our Church Body and other churches are handling all this; What medical and mental health professionals are saying; Air flow (HVAC, singing, speaking in unison, etc.); People flow (with physical distancing, masks, sanitizing, etc.); and the like.  At this moment, we do not have a live, return to worship date, and it is important for us all to be considerate of others thoughts and feelings during this process.  Should you have questions, please contact Dave Neely dave.neely@hotmail.com or Pastor Scott scott_lohman@sbcglobal.net to discuss these.

Virtual Worship Services – We continue with our Virtual Worship Services online. An email will go out Sunday with our Worship Service. You may also check our YouTube Channel: Advent Lutheran Church Chapel Hill or take a look at the Website: www.AdventLutheranCH.org.

Join us this Wednesday “VIRTUALLY!” for our Bible Class – Join us on Wednesdays at 1 p.m. We have finished looking at how God worked in the Book of Job, and we are moving to the Book of Judges.

Helping Those in Need During CoVid-19 – We continue to reach out during this time and we have checked with PORCH (People Offering Relief for Chapel Hill-Carrboro Homes).  The best way to work with them as we are in this pandemic, is to go directly to their website:   www.chapelhill.porchcommunities.org Then, click on the floating banner in red, which says Click here for how to help during COVID-19 crisis. They accept financial donations, they then safely provide to those who are in need of help. For non-perishable food donations, they are referring people to places we have worked with before, such as:  Inter-faith Council For Social  Services  http://www.ifcweb.org and Orange Congregations In Mission www.ocimnc.org. Thanks for continued to care for our community!

Additionally, the Town of Chapel Hill has provided a document for information on food provision in the area. If you would need a Spanish or Mandarin version of this document to forward, please reply to this email. Also, the Town has a Resources for Muslims during Ramadan document, if you need that forwarded. Here is the Town’s food provision document: file:///C:/Users/Pastor%20Scott%20Lohman/Downloads/ENGLISH%20COVID-19%20Food%20Distribution%20Flyer%20(1).pdf
