In light of mounting concerns over the spread of the Coronavirus, our Session of Elders has decided to cancel Worship tomorrow morning, March 15, as well as all activities at the church this week.

The Session will be discussing ways to continue to support and care for one another and our community. This is a time when we can all be very grateful for modern technology which will enable us to communicate with one another.

Please watch your email and the church's website and Facebook page for updates, as we will be keeping in touch with you. If you know of needs among our Church family, please do not hesitate to contact us (251-978-8130).

In the mean time, may we use this time to pray, reflect and be the light that shines and keeps hope humming. Perhaps each of us might light a candle at home, deriving much peace as we consider what a deeply meaningful practice that has become every Sunday morning at First Pres.

And may we be reminded of the words our Chancel Choir sings to end our Worship service each Sunday:

"Keep on, my child, keep on.

        You can make it by my grace, keep your eyes upon my face;                       with my strength you'll win the race,

keep on, keep on, keep on!"
