HELP NEEDED
This is from Lynn Pluger’s sister Jill :  I’m looking for some back-up emergency caregivers. I have multiple caregivers who cover the hours I need, but sometimes I have gaps . I am looking to have 5-10 people on a back-up list, who could be called on those rare occasions. They can decide how often they are willing to called, whatever their preference and availability is. It might be short notice or long notice, and they can say yes or no. We could do a couple training sessions so they are comfortable with what they would need to do. I would pay cash  for these situations.                                                        Please contact Lynn, if this is something you would like to help with.

Celebrating the Midweek

IT WAS WONDERFUL TO SEE EVERYONE SUNDAY
The re-opening  Sunday was amazing.  People met in the parking lot to talk and welcome those they had not seen in months.  Everyone walked in and social distanced like we are suppose to.  Katie had wonderful music. Al, Doug, and Carla did a wonderful drama that fit right in with Pastor Matt’s new sermon series. PRAISE GOD that we are able to get back together.

We will be doing the same this week with doors opening at 10:20 am.  There will be hand sanitizer. and masks available for those who need one (we understand that not everyone can wear one medically.)  Please wear one in love if you are able. There are offering boxes spread around, and there are not rows of chairs.  There will be no Oasis or nursery, but there will be coloring pages and children’s bulletins for them. After the service, you can congregate outside and talk to people.    On-line bulletins will still be offered for the time being.

PRAISE TEAM REHEARSALS
Katie is starting Praise Team rehearsals back up.  They are on Wednesday nights from 6:30-7:30 PM in the Worship Center.
