March 15, 2020 Church Update:

Dear St. Paul’s Church Family,

Out of caution and concern for the health of our entire congregation we will not gather for worship for the remainder of the month of March.  Also not meeting during this time are the Risers, Quilters, Bible Studies, Sunday School, Confirmation, or Wednesday night worship.  Our Congregational Council has voted to move First Communion and 8th Grade Confirmation to the fall of 2020 with dates to be determined.  The church office will currently remain open Monday-Thursday 9am-3pm.  During this period of time our church building is being thoroughly cleaned.

How do we worship together without being together?  Video greetings will be posted on our Facebook page and church website: www.stpaulsredwing.org . We can pray together by reading the same scripture passages during the week and thinking about the ways God is speaking to us through the Word. 

Please think about people you typically visit with when you attend worship on Saturday night or Sunday morning.  Who do you sit by?  Could you reach out to one or more of these church friends through an e-mail, phone call, or a note? 

Because we are not physically gathering, we are also not collecting the usual weekly offering or noisy offering.  The work of the church continues and in time we will all gather again.  In the meantime, your financial gifts are needed.  Please consider sending your offering to the church office by mail, or possibly changing to electronic giving.  Our office staff can assist you with this. 

Our Home Communion Eucharistic Ministers will not be doing in person visits during this time but will continue their relationships with phone calls.  I remain to you, as always, available for conversation and pastoral emergencies.  We will continue to abide by the recommendations of the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Center for Disease Control (CDC). 

I realize there are many uncertainties right now but one thing remains true… as a baptized Child of God you are an inheritor of all of God’s promises; the forgiveness of sins and the hope and promise of eternal salvation.  Through His life, death and resurrection Jesus Christ defeated the power of sin, death and the devil.  We are God’s claimed and redeemed children blessed to be blessings.  Live your faith wherever it is you are, and for a time let us do so through phone calls and electronic means. 

Love and prayers to you church,

Pastor Dana
