19 June, 2020 – Advent Announcements

RETURNING TO CHURCH – NO LIVE/IN-PERSON WORSHIP YET, BUT WE ARE GETTING CLOSER! Our tentative date we hope to return is Sunday, July 5th at 10:30 a.m. There would be no Sunday School, Bible Class, or Fellowship.

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 we discuss this, week to week, we want to inform that—like so much in society—things will look a bit differently than they have in the past. We hope everyone can be flexible and understanding, and we want to stress the importance for us all to be considerate of other’s thoughts and feelings during this process. We also plan to have videos of the services, which will be sent out via email Sunday afternoons, for those who are not yet ready to return to worship at church.

We are not yet meeting in public, but the service that will come out this weekend which will show some of our ACTS Team Members at church. They are working with me, as we determine the movement, flow and procedures we are ironing out as we look forward to a live, in-person worship gathering with more and more people. See you soon. Blessings!

More details will follow as we near July 5th.  Should you have questions, please contact Dave Neely dave.neely@hotmail.com or Pastor Scott scott_lohman@sbcglobal.net to discuss these.

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!
