Brothers & sisters in Christ,
May God sustain you through the various difficulties that this current COVID-19 crisis will cause you in your particular circumstances.
The elders met recently to discuss our response to the current circumstance.
In line with the latest announcement by the health authorities, we will be suspending physical Sunday services for a while.
In view of this we want to encourage ‘households’ to meet together on Sunday around God’s word and to pray together for their own needs and for the needs of the body of Christ and our community.
To help facilitate this, each week we will provide an outline of a service that includes the Bible readings and links to a couple of songs and a pre recorded Bible talk from Steve or Ray that continues to follow our preaching program.
This will be available later in each week, hopefully by Saturday morning.
Of course keeping in touch with others will be really important at this time, so it would be good to make use of phone and the various internet chat forums.
This crisis reminds us that church life does not depend on buildings or special effects but wholly on God and His word.
Psalms 46:1-3
God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,
though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble at its swelling.
Regards in Christ
