Announcements
Pastoral Care Update
On Thursday, March 19, 2020, Governor Ivey issued an order prohibiting all hospital visitation until further notice. The only exception to this is certain end-of-life situations. Consequently, Pastor Nicholas will not be able to make visits to members or their families should they be hospitalized at this time. However, he still desires to provide pastoral care to you even if it is from a distance. If you or your loved one is hospitalized, having surgery, or is sick, please let him know so that he can pray for you, request prayer from the church family, and be a resource to you through illness and recovery.
On Campus Services Canceled Through Saturday, April 4
In an effort to protect the health of our congregation, promote the well-being of our community, and submit to the civil authorities over us, all on campus and in person activities are canceled effective March 18, 2020, through Saturday, April 4, 2020. We anticipate the returning to worshiping together on campus on Sunday, April 5. For more details, please check out our COVID-19 updates.
