News and Upcoming Event
Community Safety: We remain focused on the health and safety of our members, visitors and our communities. The CDC continues to revise their recommendations, regarding ALL vaccines so we encourage you to check with local healthcare agencies and your doctor if you are not feeling well and/or test positive for COVID, have
flu-like symptoms or have been around someone who tests positive for COVID.
You should always practice good handwashing at all the time. The CDC advises that COVID viruses will always be with us and continues to mutate, so we have to treat it the same as we do annual 'flu virus'. Please continue to check your temperature and if you are not feeling well stay home and contact your healthcare provider for instruction on what to do to feel better and protect others.
Be safe and do not forget to check on your neighbors. Please contact Roy Stephenson if you have any suggestions or questions regarding worship service, bible study classes and/or devotional.
