Message from Pastor Joe concerning "Coronavirus".

ALL- 

Beloved, in recent days the Coronavirus has created great concern across the world. In many locations, lives have been lost and others have gotten seriously ill. We pray for those affected by this virus. The result is that many are living in fear and because of this I believe that it is a great time to live out our faith before the Lord.

I am reminded of Psalm 56:3 which says, “Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You!” Certainly, now is the time to trust in the Lord. Hence, as a church, we will continue to have corporate worship service. This is a wonderful opportunity to invite friends and family members living in fear. Jesus is always the answer to those fears. 

That said, we do not take this virus lightly and will continue to maintain a safe and sanitary church environment. In addition hand sanitizer will be available throughout the church. Also, please do all those things that the CDC is asking of you like hand washing, avoiding contact with your face, eyes, nose and mouth and limiting shaking hands.

Beloved, we refuse to allow fear to rule over us. Instead, we will trust in the Lord. Persecution has always brought growth in the church and I am praying that this virus brings many to come to Christ and continues to increase our prayer lives!

I love you and I hope to see you at church!

 

Blessings-

    Beloved, we are soon to once again celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the human Son of man and the divine Son of God. He is one hundred percent human and one hundred percent God.
     
    While there were many people instrumental in the birth of Christ, this morning we will look at His birth through the eyes of Joseph, His legal father. There is not too much known about the man who would care for Christ as He grew up. We know that Joseph was possibly a carpenter but most importantly we know that he was a righteous man who did the right thing.
     
    When others would have ran away from a responsibility that was not even their own, Joseph stood steadfast and remained faithful to the end. We can learn much from his character and apply his attributes of faithfulness, purity, and perseverance to our own lives.
     
    May you have a Blessed Christmas week and may Christ always be at the center of your lives!
     
    P.S. Come back this evening as we look at the birth of Christ through the Gospel of Luke!
