...have ended for the summer but will return in the fall.

All are urged to support fellow parishioners and neighbors in high risk groups, enabling them to stay safe in this time, and to support your church. Phone calls, errands, meals delivered and other ways to support anyone practicing self-quarantine will embody Christian compassion. Your continued financial support of your church will also be absolutely essential to maintaining all of our programs, ministries and life together in the weeks and months ahead.

If you have a pastoral need during this time, please do not hesitate to let us know. Mo. Michelle stand ready to assist and support you in every way we can.
