Please be aware that when participating in an inside in-person activity you must wear your mask and practice social distancing. We look forward to the day when this is not necessary, yet at this time in order to practice our first Wesleyan Rule of “doing no harm”, we have to follow the best guidelines as set forth by the medical & scientific community. For Holy Week starting Sunday, March 28 (Palm Sunday) through Sunday, April 4 (Easter), we hope to add more in-person opportunities including an outside Palm Sunday Service and we will have an outside Sunrise Service on Easter (April 4) at 6:30am. We also plan to keep all of the online and by phone opportunities listed above for you and/or your family to make the best decision in this time as to how and when to worship and participate in other Church activities.

Church Council and Ministry/Mission Team leaders will be providing more updates and information in March about timelines and possible schedules for other church functions to return such as Inside In-Person Tuesday Morning Bible Study, Inside In-Person Sunday School, and other opportunities. We are not ready yet to return to more inside in-person ministry and some opportunities may not return until the Fall of 2021. Please continue to monitor communications from the Church about future plans. The above mentioned plan will be Christ UMC’s plan until Monday, March 22, 2021. Please also be aware that if conditions change, inside in-person activities can be suspended until levels return to safer readings (praying that this does not occur).

Christ United Methodist Church, Selinsgrove, PA you have been an incredible blessing throughout these times. I look forward to starting to see more of you in-person while practicing safety protocols. Please be on the lookout for future mission opportunities especially in food/gift card collections to help Health & Welfare with the Selinsgrove Area Christian Council and our Easter Food Baskets Mission. Thank-you for your continued faithfulness in giving and serving. May the Lord bless you and keep you in all areas of life.

In Christ’s Love & Service
