Hello Beloved Spiritual Family, PASTOR CHRIS MADE A VIDEO UPDATE: CLICK HERE TO WATCH * We are all experiencing the disruption of life as we know it. The world seems to have been turned upside-down and inside-out by the COVID-19 pandemic. I am reminded of Psalm 46 which says, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.     Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,     though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea… God is in the midst of the city; it shall not be moved…The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge…Be still and know that I am God!” * We believe that God continues to hold all of us and the whole world in love, that God continues to be with us.

I want to share with you about how your church is working to respond to the circumstances of the coronavirus pandemic that we are all dealing with.  CLICK HERE TO VIEW MY VIDEO MESSAGE First, I want to say that we believe in a God who holds the whole world in loving care, that means every single human being and all of creation. We believe in a God who protects us and heals us, who promises to never leave or forsake us, so we have hope and trust that God will also lead us through this uncertain time. Right now, the world is hurting, we are hurting. The world is afraid and we may be afraid too.
