Dear Friends in Christ,
Greetings!
It was a blessing to see so many of you in worship yesterday, and a blessing to meet with our Elders after church. Thank you all for participating!
We had another productive Session meeting yesterday. Here are a few highlights, which affect you:
Our Elders voted YES to reopening Fellowship Hall for the following types of events, including only church members and regular attendees:
Exercise Groups (EEP and Yoga)
Dutch Treat Dames (ordinarily at a restaurant, which we can do, if you all want)
Green Chile Gals
Other church events
Our Elders voted AGAINST opening Fellowship Hall to:
Rummage Sale
3rd Sunday Potluck/Fellowship Dinners
External Groups (such as the Quay-Z Quilters)
We wish to give it more time before opening up the Fellowship Hall further, especially as the State is still under some restrictions. Please understand that our Session is taking several different factors under consideration. If you want to talk to me about any of the above, please call me at 575-708-0860.
Help is being offered: Our visitor in church yesterday is named Jerry Partin, a former Tucumcari resident, who has returned home to retire. He is available to give people rides to church. He is also looking for a home or a room to rent, and is willing to make an arrangement with someone who might need a live-in helper. He doesn't have a phone number yet, but will be back at church on Sunday, should someone have a recommendation for him.
Prayer Requests:

Make this a great week! May God be with you till we meet again!
