Evening, all. Just wanted to check in on this Sunday evening with a few things and my love. First, here’s the link to rewatch today’s worship service.
You can read Pastor Kevin’s Sermon from this 5th Sunday in Ordinary Season. He draws from Christian abolitionist, Frederick Douglass, on this Independence weekend. It was excellent and called us to have dependence on God and interdependence on one another.
We urge you to tune in to what our denomination is saying about racism. You can watch the recording of Continuing the Conversation: an FM broadcast on disarming racial divides in the church.
This next Sunday, July 12, we’ll be back to zoom church online from wherever you’re at. It was difficult to maintain healthy and safe social distancing, so we’re not going to host drive-in church again. Bummer, I know. But our first priority really and truly is your safety, and we are taking COVID super seriously.
SO!
Join us via Zoom from your home (or while traveling or at your campsite 🏕️ or on your front porch) at 10am Sunday. 🖥️
Make it fun! Invite your friends. Make snacks. 🍩 ☕ Prepare a fresh loaf of bread to serve for communion.🍞
Follow the service at monroefmc.com/sunday which includes songs, scriptures, art, and details for phoning in or joining the zoom call.
And until then, friends, hear this benediction
Let us give thanks for the salvation our compassionate God has revealed to the little ones through Christ Jesus;
and may each us take up his gentle yoke and find rest from our burdens and cares. Amen.
