Faith Lutheran Church of Beeville

Dear Faith family.

Last night your church leadership met to discuss reopening for in-person worship. Eight of the ten members were present at the zoom meeting, two were unable to attend. After a long discussion a vote was taken; the result was 8-0 in favor of returning to in-person worship with strict guidelines! Therefore we will return to in-person worship on Sunday September 13, 2020. The guidelines will be the same as the five weeks we met in May and June, with a couple of small changes. These guidelines will be sent out in a few days, please read them carefully before attending worship on the 13^th.

With all that said; we are asking for your help to make this worship time and our church run as smoothly as possible. Since the shut down in March of this year, your Pastor, his wife, and son have kept our church family running. Since March the church has had no secretary, janitor, or organist. None of these positions will be returning. We want to thank Jim & Beverly Stevenson as well as Cindy Hilliard for keeping us supplied with beautiful worship music each week!

The main task we need filled is cleaning of the church. Currently we have a way of taking care of the office needs so has to not have others in the office at this time. One of the other major areas we need help with is yard care, Carroll Lohse has singled handedly taken care of our yard and has done a wonderful job!! He needs your help though; he does not need to continue to do this by himself!

All these items need to be handled safely & carefully by individuals or very small same family groups; safety will always be the first priority.

So Faith family, please think long and hard about how you can help your church family. When someone from your leadership calls you and asks if you can help please say yes! Being a follower of Christ after all is not just about one hour on Sunday morning.

See You Sunday September 13, 2020.

Blessings to all
