Important Information
The Church was made for this!
What a time this is! We will need to really pull together as a Church family to weather the next month. We will monitor things on a day by day basis and make adjustments as needed. A few things I’d ask immediately…
Now for some positive stuff…
- I’ve heard from so many people over the years that they wish they had more time to spend with family and friends, but they are so busy with school and events and extra stuff they just can’t find it. You now have it! Let’s use this to be reminded that people are what’s really important!
- The Church has an awesome opportunity to be a safety net to its own. To show our communities one of the main reasons God provides us with the Church… to make sure all His children’s needs are met. The opportunity to live out evangelism by just BEING the Church is incredible! We want one of the news stories that will live in history about this time that, miraculously, in God’s family no one was in need. May Jesus be seen clearly and miraculously!
- For our family it’s reminding us how easily we become addicted to “stuff”. We are using this time to simplify and trim the budget. To be appreciative of what we have, give up what we don’t need, and direct our resources toward the truly important… each other. What a blessing to be reminded to live simply.
As I’ve said the Church is built for such a time as this! Be in prayer, keep in contact, wash your hands, and talk about Jesus. Please let me know of any ideas you’d be willing to work on! Barry@mycorecommunity.com
