Church family & Community,
In an effort to care for the health of our congregation and community we have been actively monitoring developments related to the Coronavirus across our state.
As you know, there are 14 confirmed cases of the Coronavirus in Kentucky. Of the confirmed cases announced this week affected areas include Harrison, Fayette, Jefferson, and Montgomery counties.
Given the fact that these cases are outside of our geographical location and upon the recommendation of trusted health professionals We WILL have church tomorrow.
With that said, our prevention guidelines will be the same practice that we use every year during Flu season.
1. We ask that everyone forgo handshakes and hugs during this time.
2. We ask folks who are sick to stay home until they are feeling better.
3. We also ask that if you have been out of the country within the last two weeks that you remain home.
4. In addition, we ask everyone to actively use hand soaps and sanitizers in order to eliminate the further spread of germs.
We understand that people are alarmed about the spread of this virus. Therefore, if you are legitimately concerned about your safety don’t feel that you have to attend. Use your best judgment.
As such, join me in praying for the healing of those who are infected and for the protection of those who are most vulnerable to the virus because of preexisting conditions.
Ultimately, situations like this remind us of the brevity of life and force us to wrestle with the question of life after death. Spiritually speaking sin left untreated is terminal but sin treated with the gospel is curable. Therefore, in the uncertainty of this moment let’s look to Jesus and trust Him to save you and keep you safe.
in Christ,
Pastor Josh
