Following Jesus and Fearlessly Making Him Known

This Weekend’s Teaching: Looking for the Light

In our final week of our study in Philippians, we explore how we can live in the light we’ve found in Jesus.

Getting Ready to Meet In-Person!

We are getting closer to being able to meet together in-person!  This week we asked for all Fearless Followers to provide some input on how we would get back together, if you have not filled out the survey you can do so here.  Over 550 responses have been received which has been so helpful for our Lead Elders as they determine when and how we begin meeting in-person.  Your input was informative and encouraging!

• 64% of you are ready to return to in-person gatherings at the first opportunity, while about 28% of others thought they may wait to return.
• 52% noted they would be good with meeting in or out of doors through the summer, but another 28% noted a higher comfort level with meeting outdoors.
• For weekend gatherings, 78% said absolutely no hand shaking!  53% said they would wear a face mask, if required, while another 18% said they would only attend if face mask where required.  Also, 66% noted that spaced seating and social distancing is important.
• Less than 15% of families would be comfortable utilizing children’s ministry at the time with about half of parents saying they are unsure and seemed to indicate that would wait for a season.

Your help with giving input is greatly appreciated!  Next weekend we will provide a date for our first gathering together and some details regarding safety precautions.
