Good Afternoon Everyone,

I want to touch base and remind while there is a 10:30 service, it is for those who have not received the news that Bishop Lee wants everyone to stay home tomorrow morning. This is a difficult decision but one which keeps us safe. Please do not attend worship tomorrow as I want you all to remain healthy.

As I have said, I will miss you all tomorrow but know following Bishop Lee's directive is what is best for us all.

These are unsettling times for us. The church is a major cornerstone of our lives and it is sad when we cannot be with one another. It is also a confusing time as we are unsure as to what is next in regards to the virus. We see surreal images on television and are understandably concerned. These past few days, I have been thinking about one of our greatest presidents, and my hero, FDR who remained steadfast in his faith as he led the country through uncharted waters. We too are in uncharted waters but our faith in one another, God and the Church give us hope and courage for what lies ahead.

I want to make sure everyone feels informed and up to date on all that is happening at EEC. Throughout the week I will be sending news as well as food for thought. You are not alone, please call me if you have any questions or concerns at 248-330-0677.

I pray we are all together again soon.
Diane+
