Good afternoon, dear children of God!

I have been in prayer, discernment and discussions with various people of faith as we consider appropriate responses to COVID-19.

With the issuing of Bishop McAlily’s request we will not have worship for Connection for the next several weeks.

If you haven’t visited onevoiceumc.org recently then this Sunday morning might be the perfect time to have a devotional at home and consider the resources there. Pray for all thise impacted by tornado and coronavirus, as well as all who are afraid or lonely.

I invite you to consider in a new light the many stories of our Lord’s healing people available to us in the Gospels. How do these examples of love and transformation change us? How do these stories impact our response to “our neighbors ” in these days?

We will continue to consider best practices going forward, so stay tuned in during the days ahead. Please check on one another by phone, texts, et cetera.

If you can continue to faithfully provide financial support know that your gifts will be a huge help as Connection continues our efforts during this pandemic.

May the Lord of light bring us hope amid any darkness and peace that keeps us loving extravagantly!
