Friends,
We will be worshiping
our risen Savior@ LIFEhouse this Sunday!
Here is a letter
received Friday, from David Price, Liaison to The Faith Community for the Mayor's Office.
We have followed all of the preparation guidelines
, as suggested.
Since sending out our letter, however, here is more detail, concerning worship.
– For Holy Communion, I will wash my hands and sanitize, as usual. As an added precaution I will wear latex gloves and offer communion wafers only, an alternative option in our Lutheran worship tradition.
– We will not share the peace
– We will not pass around plates during offering time. We will have plates to receive offering in the lobby (narthex).
Please remember to be generous during this time
, even if you are not physically present in worship. The ministry of the church carries on during, maybe even especially, at this time.
This is a good time to consider giving online if you haven't done this before. It is simple and convenient.
I have personally spoken with all members of our community who are in the more at-risk category, suggesting they stay home, and will be checking on them throughout this time.
Obviously, we will be monitoring this current health situation, day-to-day and make decisions appropriately.
And now, in the words of the beloved hymn,
“Have no fear, little flock;
have no fear, little flock,
for the Father has chosen
to give you the kingdom;
have no fear, little flock!”
