3/11/20 Weekly Update

Hello!  Hope your is going well or has gone well.  We'll get right to the point today.

Last night

Andrew led us last night as we finished up our series in James. We finished by looking at our Prayer and Pursuit.  James ends the book in a seemingly weird way.  Maybe different is the better term.  It's not the typical ending you find in most epistles.  End point?  Our prayer to God and pursuit of others is a huge factor in our following of Christ.  Attached is the sermon so you can follow along.

DNOW - CORONAVIRUS & More...

DNOW is this weekend.  At the time of me writing this update, DNOW is still on.  If for some reason we find it necessary to cancel we will do our best to go through all outlets to update you.

DNOW IS ON.  But here are some precautions and steps we've taken and ask you to take.
  • We have reached out to all our host homes to ensure they are still willing to host students.  Without host homes DNOW becomes a little more difficult. But we didn't want to assume they were comfortable hosting. We do have a plan B and even a C.  But we did reach out to the plan A's to see where they are at.
  • We are now reaching out to you as parents.  If you do not feel comfortable with your student attending DNOW we completely understand and will offer a partial refund.  The shirts have been ordered and the food purchased for the event.  Your student would still receive their shirt and we would work to refund any amount we're able.  We can work through that together.
  • We also would ask all parents not to send any student who is sick.  This would be the case at any point but the need to stress that seems a bit more serious.  The flu seems to be picking up again so when in doubt, keep them home.
  • Our plan is to closely monitor the actions of the local school/government.  While we desperately want to have this weekend we also want to protect each student/leader.  I feel the entities mentioned will have the most current information.  This along with seeking God's wisdom is our plan moving forward.

As for the actual DNOW details.
  1. Check-in begins at 6p in the fellowship hall.  Each student needs to check in there first, and then go to the Rock.
  2. No spending money is needed but we will be taking up money for our cause.  Our cause is the Seed Company which provides Scripture to people with no Scripture in their language.  An excellent way to take the gospel "TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH."  Everyone needs Scripture in their language.  This is a great way for us to help!
  3. Once students arrive at church on Sunday DNOW is officially over. Meaning they go home with you after church!
  4. WHAT TO BRING?   Bible, pen, sleeping bag/pillow, towel/wash-cloth, clothes for starters.  
  5. If your student needs to leave at any time for a game or other event please let the leaders know at check in.  
  6. Host homes will be available Friday night.  If you need to know where you student will be before then please get with Chris or Andrew.  But know all students will grouped by age/gender.  
  7. FOR MORE INFORMATION you can visit our DNOW page where you'll find our consent and schedule to the right of the page.
  8. ABOVE ALL - pray for this weekend.  For wisdom, strength, rest, discipleship, direction, fun, worship, and above all for Christ to be honored and lifted high!


We do have a few more things we have coming up but we'll get through this weekend and remind you of those later.  You could also read previous blogs to see some of those things!

Have a great and safe weekend!
