Once again, we have become aware that some of you may have received emails that appear to be from Dave Davis or other church staff requesting your help.
Please be very cautious. Church staff will not contact you asking you to buy gift cards, etc. Church staff emails will always come from a nassauchurch.org email – not a gmail or other address. We have taken steps to encrypt email addresses on our website to prevent this but it seems nothing can completely block determined scammers.
Please DO NOT respond to these emails. Even if you think an email is really from a church staff member, please make independent contact to verify before you make a financial transaction. You can send an email through the encrypted emails on our website or you can call the church and leave a message. We check the messages regularly.
We appreciate that folks want to help and just want to make sure that none of us are taken advantage of. Use a healthy dose of skepticism!

The Church in Times of Crisis: Snapshots from American History with Heath Carter
|
|
As we continue to navigate the cascading challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic, what can we learn from the past? Over the course of this month-long series we'll consider a number of moments in American history when Christians confronted crisis. In their stories we will not discover ready-made solutions for our contemporary predicament. But along the way we will find plenty of opportunities to reflect on what it means to be people animated by faith, hope, and love, even when it seems like the world is falling apart.

The Worship and Arts Committee invites you to bring the hymnal,
Glory to God,

There are two ways to bring the hymnal into your home:
To celebrate the inauguration of “Hymnals @ Home,” we will be holding an online Hymn Sing on Wednesday, June 17 at 7:00 p.m. – look out for the
Zoom invitation
