Important announcement regarding our public meetings
During this time our responsibility is to pray and stand for the Lord’s interests (Eph. 6:10-20), to watchfully shepherd the flock of God (Acts 20:28), to love our neighbors as ourselves (Mark 12:31), and to cooperate with governmental authorities (Rom. 13:1).
As believers, we are to meet together, yet we must exercise foresight and be prudent before both God and man (2 Cor. 8:21). We thus announce the following interim modifications to our meetings:
- During this phase, there will not be any meetings at the hall.
- We would rather propose to meet using different software for video conferences, such as Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, etc.
- We should all follow the guidelines according to the City of Irving: https://www.cityofirving.org/3601/Coronavirus-Information, and the State of Texas: https://www.texas.gov/covid19
