In-Person Worship—9 a.m.

  • The Church Council met on Tuesday, November 16, 2021 and voted to continue wearing masks inside the building (unless you're in a room by yourself).

  • Do not be shy about letting people know that you would prefer they keep their distance still. That is OK! The ushers can also set up chairs in the narthex if needed.

  • If you do not feel well for any reason, please stay home and join in worship on Facebook.

  • We will be singing and praising the Lord together.

  • Communion, usually on the first Sunday of the month, will continue to be in the pew using the individually packaged juice and wafer.

  • The nursery is open.

  • The front doors are open during the week between 9am and 5:30pm (or later when groups are meeting). Office hours, however, are still somewhat irregular. Please call ahead if you need something from the church office.

  • The service will still be livestreamed on Facebook and will be available on the Live tab and later on YouTube for viewing anytime.

Postponement of General Conference Explained

Here is a link from Pastor Mike to an article written by Bishop David Bard, Interim Bishop, Minnesota Conference that more fully explains the decision of postponing the General Conference until 2022.

Giving Back to God

Since we are not passing the offering plate, we encourage you to continue to remember your church financially during this time. Offerings can be mailed to 1036 7th Street, Nevada, IA 50201 or dropped in the mail box by the staff entrance on the north side of the building (the door that faces the public library.).

This might also be a time to consider electronic direct giving. Automatic Debit Forms are available from the office or click this form. Or, if you do online banking, you can set up your own one-time or recurring offering. Even after we resume services, the offering plates will be located in the back of the sanctuary for a while.
