Update About Singing In Our Service
The past four weeks of in-person services have been a joy. The worship of God's gathered people is a tremendous blessing. Absence made our hearts grow fonder.
As you know, we love to sing. It's an important part of our ministry to one another. We missed it while we were apart.
However, we're sad to announce that this Sunday we will not be singing during our service. On Wednesday, the California Department of Public Health published an order requiring places of worship to "discontinue singing." We’re contacting county and state public health offices to get more clarity on the order. If we get the green light to sing outdoors, we’ll start right back up. For now, we're pressing pause.
We know this is hard to hear. It's disappointing.
However, we’re cheerfully complying with this order. It's intended to curb the spread of COVID-19, it's applied to all equally, and it's a temporary restriction. We will sing together again!
Our in-person service is still on for this Sunday at 10:30am. Though we won’t be singing, our pastors are working on some alternative elements for our service.
As always, please contact the pastoral team if you have any questions. They’re available and eager to serve you.
Remember, our entire lives are worship (Rom. 12:1). Let's trust the Lord and do all we can to "encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing" (1 Thess. 5:11).
