Church Board Update of Sunday Services and Activities at Plymouth Church
March 18, 2020
Dear Plymouth Church Family,
Historically, those who serve Jesus have been the most committed to serving others during times of widespread illness. The impact of the COVID-19 virus challenges us to carry on that model of loving service and cooperation. Plymouth Church leadership takes the command to meet together (Hebrews 10:24-25) very seriously. Therefore, it is only by necessity that we will be temporarily sacrificing our time of (in person) fellowship and corporate worship. This sacrifice is part of caring for each other and serving and cooperating with our community.
Plymouth Church will refrain from facilitating gatherings larger than 10 people (Per government and health department request) through April 4th. This means that we will cancel Sunday worship service for March 22nd and 29th. Small groups may resume meeting at the church as needed. Please be responsible in controlling the size of gatherings that you are involved in, as the church will not be policing this. Wiping down and sanitizing areas that you use is critical. The church will provide some cleaning supplies. However, any assistance with supplies and efforts in sanitizing is much appreciated.
Our pastoral staff will continue to post worship services on the church website. They are hoping to offer a midweek devotional online as well.
The Pastors and Elders will convene again on March 31 to discuss plans beyond April 4th. Please be in prayer for wise decisions to be made for the church body as we learn more on the COVID-19 virus.
Expect a phone call from your Pastor or Elder flock leader. Even if we cannot meet in person, we still wish to stay connected. Please continue to call our Pastors or Elders with prayer requests, questions, or just to talk. Call and encourage each other as well!
Other details and clarifications:
-Bible studies, prayer groups and committees can meet at their own discretion
-AWANA, Visions, and Wings will not be meeting during this time
-Home fellowships can meet at their own discretion
-The church office will be open next week as usual
If you were planning to give your tithe on Sunday, we would encourage you to mail it.
In His Service,
Plymouth Church Pastors and Elders
