A note from the Reverend Bob Kossler:

Dear Friends in Christ,

As many of you know, the United States and the rest of the world has struggled with how to handle the COVID-19 virus. Yesterday, Bishop Marc sent out a message asking all of the churches in the Diocese to cancel services for the month of March. He reiterated that he is most concerned with both our physical health and our spiritual health. This was not an easy decision and was not taken lightly. I realize just how important our Sunday gatherings are for our community, but we need to insure the security of all of our members. Consequently, we will have no services per the Bishop's instructions.

I am now considering how best to help maintain our spiritual practices this Lenten season. I will put together readings and a reflection for Sunday. You should receive it by Saturday evening. Also, I am more than willing to come to your home for a pastoral visit if that would help. You can schedule with Keith, our office administrator.

I know that this decision leaves a void, especially in this time of uncertainty, but we will get through it and be stronger because of it. Please support each other and let me know if there is any way that I can assist.

Yours in Christ,
Bob+
