WHY We will NOT meet in-person for worship on Sundays or Wednesdays in July.
-
Because the Christian is servant of all. We love our neighbors as
we love ourselves. (Matthew 22:36-40)
-
Remember that the neighbor always comes first and that what we do to the least of these who are members of our family [in Christ], we do to Christ. (Mt 25:34-40)
-
Remember that “you are called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as opportunities for self-indulgence, but become servants to one another. For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Gal 5:13-14)
-
Remember Luther’s explanation of the 5th Commandment: “We are to fear and love God, so that we neither endanger nor harm the lives of our neighbors, but instead help and support them in all of life’s needs.”
-
Remember that while all things may be lawful for you, not all things are beneficial. Nor do all things build up the body of Christ. (1 Cor 6:12, 10:23)

-
Due to the increased corona virus cases in Montana for the past 2-3 weeks.
-
Singing and speaking in church have been shown to be significant spreaders of the virus.
-
Lack of volunteers for the extra worship assistants duties required because of corona-virus, people “staying-at-home” and busy summer schedules.
-
Our church serves a vulnerable population, so we take extra care.
-
Pastor Molly will preach every Sunday instead of Wednesdays.
