Dear Members, Visitors, and Friends of the Congregation,

          We continue with both in-person worship and videos of the services. Attendance has averaged 38 people which means that a good number of our members are not yet ready to gather in-doors in a group setting. This is quite understandable and I just hope the videos are still helping to give a sense of worshipping together and being connected to the congregation.

          The Church Council will meet via ZOOM next Tuesday to discuss, among other things, resuming Adult Sunday School and other ministries.

          The prayer I will pray during our Conference Call tonight, October 7, at 7:00 PM, comes from what I was feeling last week – that I’d pretty much had it with all that’s going on and the best way to put what I was feeling (and still feel) was to say enough is enough. I decided to say it to God, pray it in a prayer, and see where it might lead. The result is the attached prayer. As always, check Pastor Flanigan’s email for what you need to join in on the call.

          May God continue to grace us with the patience and strength to keep doing the right and responsible thing,

Pastor Halenza
