Dear Friends,
I want to begin with the following note the St. Andrew’s Elders have recently prepared: “The church sanctuary is closed to in-person services at this time. The Session of St. Andrew’s is closely monitoring the latest health guidance to gauge when and how to re-open for in-person attendance. As always, the health and safety of our parishioners is our primary concern. As the COVID-19 environment remains uncertain, we are unable to predict when it will be safe to resume in-person worship services. We will provide further updates as soon as they become available.”
This Sunday, we will continue to explore the fourth sacred fruit called “patience” in our service. As usual, the worship will begin at 10:00 a.m., on Sunday, January 30, 2022, via Zoom. The Zoom link will open at 9:45 a.m., and the announcement slides will be played before the service. A copy of the service info, including the sermon, is attached. A Zoom fellowship will take place for those who want to join after the service.
Upcoming Sunday Service Info:
February 6: Presentation on the St. Andrew’s Prayer Shawl Ministry and Blessing upon the prepared shawls
& St. Andrew’s Annual meeting (right after the service)
February 13: Presentation on “Moving Mountain Faith” with Sherry Henderson
& Knox Annual Meeting (right after the service)
February 27 (Tentative): Presentation on “Moving Mountain Faith” with Michael Nicholson
If any of you have prayer requests, please let a church elder or me know. We, as a church, want to pray for you and your loved ones together. Also, please let us know if you know anyone who wants to join our Zoom services and be added to our church emailing list. We want to share God’s love and grace with everyone in our community and even beyond.
“Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?” (Matthew 18:33).
Blessings,
Caleb
