Church in the Time of COVID-19


On Sunday morning we "go" to the 8:30 service at Peninsula Bible Church as we sit on the couch in our living room.  Our church, like many others, reacted quickly to get on board with the new reality.  This week we celebrated the Lord's Supper with our fellow church members and were reminded that "doing this in remembrance of his broken body and spilled blood" can take place in whatever situation we find ourselves.  



Our weekly Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) small groups are held on Zoom calls, and we watch the BSF recorded lecture on the BSF.org website. Our small group has not met during the month of March.  


It takes an effort to stay connected to people during this time, but it can be done through face-to-face sharing apps, regular phone calls, emails, texts or even by going "old-school" and writing letters or notes.  


What's even more important than staying connected to people is staying connected to the Father.  He's always there and easily found through his Word and prayer. He is not surprised by current events or our individual circumstances. He is faithful. He is and always will be in control of his creation.
