Sunday Worship - September 13, 2020 
Matthew 18:21-35, Psalm 103:1-14
Pastor Steve Johnson - "God Is Great; God Is Good"

This is usually one of the busiest months of the year as the church resumes fall activities; however, this year is different. Some things haven't changed. For example, our Preschool and Kindergarten classes are starting, which always livens things up. Bible studies are scheduled to begin even if by Zoom. We are also having meetings to prepare for our annual Charge Conference with the new District Superintendent, Rev. Ann Ferris, still the hallways are not bustling with people visiting before worship, and Sunday School classrooms are silent. There are no potlucks. Children's ministries are still online instead of in-person. Church life has certainly changed.
I must admit that I have enjoyed not having every weeknight filled with meetings, activities and studies. Yet at the same time I realize this means that we have lost opportunities to grow in faith and in relationships with one another. We have discovered that studies and meetings are not the same virtually as they are in-person. I hope that despite the limitations we're living with, we will discover ways to remain connected to one another and God. Let's continue to practice daily devotions, worship online or in-person, and reach out to our neighbors in need.
Pastor Steve
