A Message From Pastor
Jolita:
This Sunday we will gather for
worship for one service at 10:30 AM. In compliance with the latest
guidelines, masks
will be required. We will have disposable masks available if you
forget yours. We will practice social distancing by sitting in
alternate pews and avoiding physical contact.
We pray for the day when we can resume "normal" activity.
In the meantime, do not let this divide us. There is one Lord,
one faith, one baptism and we are one body in one Spirit. We
have big visions of what God has in store for each us at New
Life UMC and God's mission has not ended.
We can do it. We will sing, not from the top of our lungs, but
from the bottom of our hearts. We will stay strong in faith and
no enemy will distract us from worshipping our God.
The worship service will be recorded. It may take some time to
upload. For your convenience, subscribe to New Life YouTube channel
so you can receive notification when it is uploaded.
"I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the LORD
in the land of the living!" Pslam 27:13

If you plan to attend in person,
this information will be helpful to you:
* Bulletins will not be available
at New Life. The bulletin file will be sent as an attachment
via e-mail (from godbys@centurylink.net) on Friday or Saturday.
You may print it at home and bring it with you if you wish. It
will also be available on the website (below) but will not include
the prayer and address lists.
* Children - you may bring activities with
you to occupy your children or from the back pew pick up a white
paper sack with activities for children. These sacks and contents
are to be taken home at the end of the service. Children are
to remain in the pew with their adult/s for the entire service
.
* If you brought a cushion in the past, it is under the back
pew. Please pick it up, use it if you wish, and take it home
with you at the end of the service. Bring it with you whenever
you return to worship and wish to use it, taking it back home
each time.
* If you brought a cross to be on the altar
during Lent, it is on the back pew. Please take it home with
you.
* Offering plates will be at the back of
the sanctuary. You may put your offering in when you enter or
leave the service or you may continue to use on-line giving through
PayPal.
* Remember to use non-contact greetings
instead of handshakes and hugs.
* Restrooms will be limited to one person
occupying at a time and will be cleaned after each use.
* The water fountain and other areas marked
