Grace, Mercy and Peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Pennsylvania has enacted new gathering restrictions because of this current wave of the Covid 19 virus. Berks County in recent weeks has seen daily Covid totals in the hundreds, up to the four hundreds. I've spoken to congregation members, family, and friends who know of people in their family and circle of friends who have contracted the virus. The mitigation efforts state that Religious institutions ar...e "strongly encouraged to find alternative methods of worship as in person gatherings pose a significant risk to participants at this time." The Church Board, with consultation with the Safety Committee, will be meeting on Monday to determine how we will worship during this time of further restrictions. For this Sunday, December 13, worship will be held at 9:00AM. However, we are strongly encouraging Belleman’s members to worship through virtual means, either through Facebook live, or when worship is posted on the YouTube Channel. Worshipping in your vehicle, in the parking lot through FM radio, is also an option. I'd like to suggest that we proceed with the following in mind. How can we insure that Belleman's can worship safely? How can we worship so that Congregation members feel safe? I ask you to pray for our Church leadership as we prayerfully ponder.
