SUNDAY DETAILS 3/22-3/28

1. Trinity and COVID-19— The elders have unanimously made the tough decision to move from physical to virtual gatherings for at least the next two Sundays. Our decision is based on a desire to love our neighbors and for the sake of testimony. This is not a reaction of fear as we know that all things are in God’s hands. This is also not a scenario of government repression as churches have not been singled out in the request to limit physical gatherings. We also admit that this situation is not ideal, since technology can never replace the embodied gathering of God’s people. Yet we believe that God is actively working in this situation for his glory.  

2. Sunday Service through Zoom: 10am— We chose to use Zoom because it allows us to see each other! We ask that you would turn your camera on consider your virtual presence as a blessing to the church family. We will have an abbreviated service with prayers, readings, and a sermon on Daniel 4 from David King. 

Everyone is strongly encouraged to do a trial call before Sunday morning. Here's a tutorial for those who haven't used Zoom before. We will host a test call on Saturday from 11am to noon for this purpose. If you have trouble, don't hesitate to call Av for help: 615.633.2498.

On Sunday morning, we will begin our Zoom call at 10am and the service will begin at 10:30am.

BODY-LIFE ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. Timothy Training, Wednesday 6:30-7pm—The men will take a break from physically gathering and discussing How People Change. However we feel that it is very important to emphasize social interaction in this time of physical distancing. Please join us for a 30 minute Zoom call that will feel a little like a “men’s care group.”
