Announcements

At 9:00 am June 7, 2020, the Virlina District will hold a special prayer event for churches across the district. You can watch it live or view the recording by going here.

The Leadership Team will meet on Wednesday, June 10th via Zoom. Allison Stetar will send an email with the meeting information.

At their monthly meeting, the Leadership Team voted to hold off reopening the church until June 14th at the earliest. A final decision regarding the date will be made at the June 10th Leadership Team Meeting.

The Program and Arrangements Committee of the Church of the Brethren Annual Conference has announced plans for a series of denominational virtual events on July 1 and 2. Although the 2020 Annual Conference that would have taken place in Grand Rapids, Mich., has been cancelled, the committee decided it is important for the denomination to gather, albeit in a different way, in recognition of the church’s ongoing life together. The virtual denominational choir will also be held during this time to include the songs Blessed Assurance, I See a New World Coming, and Move in Our Midst. Persons who want to be on the mailing list for the denominational virtual choir to receive updates and the link to the project webpage, when available, are encouraged to email their contact information to: cobvirtualchoir2020@gmail.com.

Psalm Reading

Psalm 8 (NIV taken from Bible Gateway)

1 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens. 2 Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. 3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, 4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? 5 You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. 6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet: 7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild, 8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. 9 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
