      -Wearing a mask is encouraged 

      -during phase one there will be no Sunday school or youth group.

      - The recovery through Christ ministry will continue to meet following social distancing guidelines.

      - Although not required you can call, text, or email to notify that you will be attending the Sunday evening service.

      -There will be hand sanitizing stations and masks available.

  3. We will continue in phase one throughout the month of May and will evaluate services, times, and places of meetings at that time. 

  PHASE TWO:

• Bible Study with Pastor Josh

  Pastor Josh will be uploading various bible studies to the website. You can find these by clicking on "Pastor Josh" at the top of the webpage. You will then see a link for "Bible Studies". Click there and you will be able to view a PDF for a bible study that you can do at home with your family during this time of confinement. Check back frequently as more bible studies will be added each week.

• Exciting News - Online Giving Is Now Available

  For your convenience, online giving is now available. At the top of the website, you will see "Give" with a hand underneath the word. You will also see this option under the contact information on the left side of the website. Once you click this option, you will be linked to the form that will process your giving amount. You can choose to make a one time gift or a recurring gift. You may also choose to absorb the fee associated with the church using this service. If you check "Choose Fee", it will show you what the fee is and what you will be charged. It is a small amount and based on a percentage of what you give. For example, if you gave $20, you would be charged 91 cents. You may use your bank card, credit card, or your checking account. We hope you find this service useful, especially during this time of confinement for many. If you have any questions or problems, please email Cindy Nickodam at cnickodam@gmail.com.
