A Message from the Health Response Team-June 19, 2020
Paul reminds us in his first letter to the Corinthians (10:23-24), "All things are permissible, but not all things are beneficial. 'All things are permissible,' but not all things build up. Do not seek your own advantage, but that of the other.” Your pastors and Health Response Team are working very diligently and compassionately to discern how Trinity Lutheran Church should respond to the pandemic data available. The difference between what we can do and what we should do is sometimes great. Your leaders are collaborating and working overtime to generate a phased plan to safely reopen the building for worship and other gatherings. However, we don’t anticipate it being safe to begin phasing for some time—unfortunately, the Covid pandemic is in control of the timeline, and not us. For now, our pastors and Health Response Team recommend staying the course with our virtual worship services. Soon, though, we will survey our congregants in order to better understand your struggles, hopes, and grief. When the survey reaches you, please fill it out honestly and completely so that we can best serve Trinity Lutheran Church between now and normal. That period of time—between now and normal—may be long; so, let’s continue to support, pray for, and uplift each other in the ways we can!
