An Important Message from Pastor Eugene

Dear Quest,

It is very rare for our church to send more than one email to our church community, but in light of the current situation with the H1N1 (aka Swine Flu) virus, not just globally, but also in Seattle, the Elder Board and Staff wanted to let you know that for the next several weeks (or until the situation settles down), we've made some precautionary decisions.  Please note that our intent isn't to propagate fear but rather, practice discerning precaution.

  1. Communion will obviously continue to be served.  However, the bread will be pre-sliced into personal sizes. It should be obvious, but please take one small piece of bread for communion and dip into the Cup.  While we want to be sensitive to people's traditions, please DO NOT drink directly from the cup.
  2. During the benediction, we will not hold hands, but of course continue the spirit of the benediction by receiving and sharing the benediction song.

Our children's ministry will also be taking its regular precautions as well.

We have had some amazing moments as a community these past few weeks. In addition to a glorious Easter celebration and meal couple weeks ago, we witnessed parents and families bringing their children before the community and God for dedications and baptisms.  We also saw three sisters publicly confess their devotion to Jesus through baptism as well. Thanks for your continual partnership in ministry!

See you on Sunday.
