Hello All,
In consultation with Pastor Matt, the St. James Church Council has, with prayer, concluded that for the time being the prudent thing to do is cease church services and Wednesday Lenten Soup Suppers, beginning with Sunday, March 15 2020. We feel that for the health of our members and friends, the best course of action is to eliminate the chance of transmission during our worship times. We are sorry to do this, and recognize that this will leave a void in our hearts to lose this opportunity to come together in worship and study.
In the meantime, we will be working creatively to design resources to help you in your devotions and family worship. Through this email group, and through our Facebook page, we will be sharing materials and videos for your use.
The other groups who meet in our fellowship hall and family room are asked to evaluate their use of these spaces and adapt/cease their use if appropriate. This is at the discretion of the leaders and members of these groups.
Thank you for your prayers for our congregation and our Pastor as we all work through these difficult days. If you have questions, please contact Sue Kabat, council president, at 906-203-8718, or any council member.
May God Bless Us,
Sue
