May 24, 2019
Dear Church,
Another week comes and goes, and the pandemic crisis continues. “Sheltering in place” continues and
yet some things are beginning to open up. People are heading to the shore to at least see the beach and
ocean during the Memorial Day weekend. When will we gather again at the church? Not sure. For now,
we are observing the strictest guidelines. There is still a virus and there is no vaccine.
In the meantime, please know you are missed. I miss you and the rest of your church family misses you.
We miss you a lot because you matter to us, you are important. And that’s also why we continue to stay
apart. It is a strange way to love, but here we are. You are loved.
This letter brings you the bulletin for this Sunday, May 24, and the information below about how to join
the service by phone or computer. We hope you will join us. As always, we ask you to join early to test
the technology and learn of any important service notes or announcements. After the service ends there
is a brief time when all of us can say hello to everyone, sort of a virtual coffee hour. We are doing what
we can to stay strong, stay connected and be the church.
The season of Easter lasts 40 days until the Ascension. This year, that fell on Thursday, May 21. We will
tell the story of Jesus’ ascension this Sunday, May 24.
See you in church!
David Lehmkuhl, pastor
