Good Saturday morning Church Requel!
Tomorrow will be a new double first for our Church. The first first is that we will have two church services tomorrow. The second first is that both church services will take place without a church building.
Our Worship Service Sunday at 11am. We will meet together at 11am tomorrow morning for our worship service. Brandi, Dave and Yours Truly will sing. Brian will lead our prayer time. Brandi will lead our communion. I will bring our teaching from the Word. Our sermon is called, "Peace In The Pandemic." If you'd like a head start, you can read my sermon notes here: http://bible.com/events/7198264
You may attend our worship experience in one of two ways - through Zoom or through Facebook Live. We prefer that you set up a Zoom account because we have experienced some difficulties with the Facebook feed. Last week it took eight attempts to get it to work. The Zoom meeting ID is 609-489-055. If you need the password, email or private message me.
Fred Wiegand's Memorial Service at 2pm. When our worship experience is over, we will take a short break to refresh ourselves and then host Fred's memorial service at 2pm. This will be done entirely on Zoom. Right now we have 66 different devices reserved for this memorial service by Fred's family and friends. What a wonderful opportunity to be the host church family for all of Fred's family and friends! I've been working with Susie all week long to make this possible. Please pray for us that everything goes smoothly.
If you would like to attend this memorial service, you must do so via Zoom. This service will not be on Facebook Live. The Zoom meeting ID is 925-5647-8614. If you need the password, email or private message me.
Our Daily Devotionals at 11am. For three weeks now we have continued our daily habit of worship and devotionals on our Facebook page. Usually this is led by yours truly. However twice now Brandi has led and done a wonderful job. She is planning to up her contribution to leading twice next week! Yay! If you've been working during the day during the week and haven't been able to check it out, click on our Facebook page this morning at 11am to see what you've been missing!
Weekly Bible Study Saturdays at 11am. Brian continues to do a marvelous job leading our Saturday morning Bible studies. We are working our way through the Old Testament in broad strokes. Our study is taught by Dr. Sproul. This study is also only available through Zoom. Our meeting ID is 115 939 113. If you need the password, email or private message me.

This Coronavirus may be keeping us in our homes, but it is definitely NOT slowing us down here at Church Requel. I feel as if we are meeting and loving on one another more than ever! You are the epitome example of Hebrews 10:24 & 25 -
"Let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." (ESV)
Keep on keeping on! We will come out of this on the other end stronger than ever!
Love you all much! Pastor Mark
