The late service on Sunday is scheduled to be outdoors, "weather permitting." If it is raining, the service will be moved into the sanctuary where our usual COVID protocols will apply (ie sit in rows with bulletins on the end chair to maintain social distancing, masks are encouraged but not required, etc). Since the weather can be fickle in the fall, a decision sometimes can't be made until just before service time. When that happens we are unable to get notifications up on the web or app. So on "chance of rain" mornings, come prepared to worship either outside or inside. Or, if you prefer, watch the stream of that day's 8:30 am service on the COS YouTube channel.
The Scriptures for this weekend's Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost worship services are Ge 50:15-21; Ro 14:5-9; Mt 18:21-35. The late service will be outdoors, weather permitting:) The link to the livestream is below in the "This Week @ COS" calendar listing.

Amazing Race Youth Group Event
Our first youth group outing of the year will be an Amazing Race through downtown Rockford. This event was postponed last year due to rain so we'll be praying for sunny skies this year. All middle school and high school age members are invited. Please sign up on the bulletin board, on the COS Rock app, or by replying to the email that was sent to youth group age families.
Food Truck Sunday
We are reaching out to a couple food trucks to be onsite before and after the worship services on either Sunday, October 11 or October 18. Once we get some commitments, expect an email with details about how it will work. The hope is set up some tables and chairs in the parking lot outside the front door, so that worshippers can eat their food truck purchases which enjoying a little fellowship.
