COVID-19-MESSAGE FROM PASTOR-ADJUSTMENT OF WORSHIP AND MINISTRIES EXPERIENCES

Beloved,

Grace, Mercy, and Peace be unto you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

As people of faith we are responsible and accountable for the life and life more abundantly promised by God for our lives, our communities, and our world. The Word of God in Genesis 1:28 declares, “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion . . . . God has favored us to be caretakers of His creation and invited us into co-creator status with Him to ensure that what He has created is well cared for and expanded. Therefore, as our 2020 Lenten Series challenges, let us “Give Up To Give To," revealing God intentionally in all of our actions, being responsible and accountable to God, one another, and each other that we would be fruitful and multiply, caring for one another and God’s creation with the assignment of expansion, living and promoting the fullness of life and life more abundantly.

As a result of our call to God’s creation and to life and life more abundantly, beginning Monday, March 16, 2020, The Springs will suspend all of its in-person congregational ministry/activities until further notice. However, Sunday Morning Worships, 8AM and 10AM, as well as Thursdays’ Pastor’s Teaching, 12PM and 7PM, will be broadcast live via our website, Facebook, Youtube, and by Conference Call. In addition, our Tuesdays’ Corporate Prayer Experiences, 12PM and 6PM, as well as Wednesdays Journey Through The Bible Study, 6PM, and Saturdays Burning Bush Bible Study, 12:30PM, will be accessible by Conference call. Please see the reverse side of this letter for all access points/information for our Live Broadcasts, Conference Call numbers, Resources, and.Online Giving.

As you and I navigate these troubling waters of CONVID-19, please remember the following safeguards:

Clean Hands Often

Cover Coughs and Sneezes

Clean and Disinfect Frequently Touched Areas

Social Distancing (Least 6 feet)

Stay Home If You Are Sick; If Older Adult Or Have

Underlying Conditions Consult Dr.

Remember through Christ we can do all things. Please be faithful and well and may the Lord of all continue to reveal to you, us His grace, love, and power!

Yours for the Cause of Christ,

Pastor William Mathis, J.D., M.Div
