Winter Weather Update

The Winter Storm Warning is currently scheduled to take effect tonight at 7 pm and the heavy snow will start most likely later in the evening. 

Therefore, we submit for your consideration tonight's service at 6:30 pm (again, if you can travel safely) to celebrate the Eucharist together on the Festival of the Conversion of St. Paul.

As for Sunday, I urge all to use their best judgment as to whether you can safely travel. The NWS is currently advising people to "consider delaying all travel" and to "use extreme caution if travel is absolutely necessary." 

Those scheduled to serve in any way, including assistants, counters, altar guild, staff, and council and board members, are absolutely NOT obligated to come in if they cannot travel safely. Likewise, no one should come to church if it's unsafe simply because they think the pastor will be there and therefore they should be. I will know by early tomorrow morning whether I think I'll be able to make it in and update accordingly.

Thank you!
