Email your prayer requests or call the pastor. We remain a praying people. Let the pastor know if you are ill, have a need, or have joy to share. We have church members wanting to help and waiting to share your joys.
Connect:
We have a phone tree, one of the church's most ancient forms of staying connected. Phone tree leaders are being given a small group of church members to call and stay connected with throughout this time of social distancing. Don't be surprised if you hear from a church member. Feel free to reach out to others! The more the merrier certainly applies here. We are your church. We love you. You are not alone!
Become Friends:
You can like our church Facebook Page or become Facebook Friends with our Pastor Jeanette C. Hicks to have even more connection with our church and its members. Find your friends and church family on Facebook or Instagram and link up. This is the age of connecting over our screens and phones. Embrace it.
Other Wonderful Resources:
There are so many incredible resources already out there and many more being developed to help support worship and faith development in these days of isolation. Here are some of Pastor Jeanette's favorites and many suggestions backed by Rev Traci Smith.
