First Covenant Church: A Church on the Move!
The next two Sundays will be much like the past two Sundays: We will gather at 10:00 am for worship and we will have nursery care for our youngest children and formation for our older children. One Sunday we will have a formation event and a meal after worship (Feb. 23). Pretty much, “Same old, same old.”
But there will be some notable differences. We will not meet to worship under our dome. Instead, we will be meeting in the Summit building (next door to the east) while the interior of our dome will be getting a much-needed facelift. We will have a guest preacher this Sunday: Eunice Dofrom The Table Seattle (see more about Eunice below). And February 23 will be Camp Sunday! That day, worship will feature special music, lots of youth participation, and a visit from Cascades Camp executive director, Rob Mohrweis. Activities and a camp-style meal will follow.
This Sunday, February 16, Voyagers will meet at 10:00 am in the Narthex of the church building, and nursery and children’s church will meet in their normal locations at the church. Please use caution as you navigate through the maze of shoring poles down in Fellowship Hall and Fireside Room. (There are no poles in the nursery or children’s church room.)
Next Sunday, February 23, children are invited to remain in worship for Camp Sunday. We’ll have some fun activities for them! We’ll keep you posted on the location of nursery care.
We hope to be back under the dome for worship on Sunday, March 2. Stay tuned!
While Pastor Todd will be half-way around the world through much of this, Pastor Lauren will lead our exodus across Crawford and back, along with a great supporting cast both from our church and from our PNW Conference.
Thank you in advance for your prayers, your patience, your understanding, and your enthusiastic participation. May we all pray heartfelt prayers of gratitude for Hans-Erik Blomgren and the Equip team along with Allan Waite, without whom this would not be going as smoothly as it is.
With appreciation for you all,
~ Pastor Todd and Pastor Lauren
