Dear Faith Family,
 
Nobody likes to admit it when they need help. We don't like being dependent on others - we want others to be dependent on us! However, one of the beautiful things about life in Christ, is that we are made aware that all of us are dependent! None of us are able to meet all of our own needs. Praise God that he has given us himself and one another expressly for this reason. Love means both giving AND receiving.
 
Thanks to the COVID-19 virus, we have been presented with some unique chances to engage in that kind of loving, but to do so we need to connect givers and receivers. So we're asking: If you have needs (or know of someone who does) will you share them with us? If you have resources to give, will you share them with us? 

 
  • If you are in need of receiving help, will you allow us to give to you? Let us know of your needs for errands to be run, to have phone conversations so you feel less isolated, and other things like this. Please respond to this email to let us know your need.

  • If you are able to give, will you share with others? Become part of our volunteer team to run errands and have conversations. Please respond to this email and let us know you want to be on the team to help those in need.
 
God has brought us together to be a faith family knowing Christ and making him known together. Let us lean into each other’s needs and receive from each other the help we need as an expression of the way that Jesus first loved us.
 
With gratitude,
 
Pastor Shelley and Pastor Doug
