congregations

During this time of not being able to meet in person, it is important we continue to steward our buildings well. We encourage congregations to safely undertake a walk-around of their properties weekly to ensure they are kept in good condition.

This Easter will be very different for all of us. Thankfully technology is helping us through these tough times and we thought we would share some ways that will help you stay connected this Holy Week.

We are sure there will be many stories of hope to come out of our churches during this crisis. As we move forward in the coming months, please keep us informed about what you are doing and how you are reaching out to others in this time of need.
