​Meditation Group Meeing on Zoom

Tuesdays

12:15

​

Meditation will begin at 12:15 PM on Tuesday the 10th.  We will begin with introductions, conversation, and a short session of meditation.  This will be virtual only (by zoom) as we have a number of people up and down the coast who have expressed interest in joining.  

Contact the Church office for information on how to gain access on Zoom.

 

Bible Study

Thursdays

11:00

​

Bible Study will begin on Thursday the 12th at 11 AM.  Currently it will be offered as a hybrid study (zoom and in person together) provided there is a critical mass of people in person to participate. Pastor Derek will still have to figure out the tech piece to make it most accessible to all participants. He has not yet selected a text because he'd like to hear from you about where you'd like to begin. 

​

Once we know who is participating we will only email those participants.  You can request the link at any time through the church office.

 

Please reach out to me with any questions or concerns. We understand technology is not everyone's favorite, but  do not want anyone to be excluded who wishes to participate.  If you need help figuring out zoom, you are welcome to contact Pastor Derek.  Please share this message with anyone who you think would be interested.
