I know that the shine has worn off of this social distancing thing... if it ever had any shine at all. This forced pause has had some up sides and the rush to take our world (church, work, school, social lives) online has settled into something we never could have imagined a few weeks ago.
I get that it's less exciting to comment on every Facebook post and follow every IG story.
So can I invite you to add something to your online life that will stay with you long after we are able to meet in person?
Hebrews 10:24-25 says, "Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging on another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching."
Connecting Point isn't the only answer to the command in these verses but we offer it to our church as a really effective way to be in community, encourage and be encouraged, challenge and be challenged, not giving up on meeting together and all the growth and inspiration that comes with that.
Consider joining a group for May and June. This is a new season with new opportunities to learn and grow, redeeming all the crazy for God's good purposes in our lives!
Here are some options for you:
Life in the Spirit: taught by Pastor Del, moderated by Pastor Tracy via Zoom - Tuesdays @ 7:30pm (if the group is big, we can break into small group "rooms" for discussion after the lesson!)
First Steps: groups will be arranged as registrations are received.
Sisters Women's Group: led by Pastor Erin via Zoom - Wednesdays @ 8:00
NEXT Courses: self-directed studies that can be coordinated into groups upon request.
How are you considering how to spur yourself and others on toward love and good deeds this spring? We may not be in the same room but we are just as passionate about CONNECTING, TRAINING and IMPACTING!
Looking forward to seeing you in a CP group,
Pastor Tracy
