COVID-19
The Covid-19 outbreak here in America has struck at the very heart and soul of our country. Our prayers go out to those areas that have been hit the hardest, and especially to those who have lost loved ones.
As pastor of Victory Baptist Church, I was torn as to what the church should do in regard to the national request to limit gatherings to ten or less. Church attendance is an important part of all our lives, yet so is the health and well being of our people. As I write this message, I have been notified of one confirmed case here in Carbon County.
Let us not give in to the spirit of fear. II Timothy 1:7, “For God hath not given to us the spirit of fear; but of power, and love, and of a sound mind.”
Panic is not the the solution, but rather faith, compassion and wisdom are. God can sustain us through this. It is in this spirit that we have decided it wise and compassionate to cancel public services here at the church till at least April 5, 2020.
I will be preaching two messages weekly and making them available on the church’s website: vbcrawlins.org.
I encourage you to share this information with friends and family.
God Bless You,
Pastor Steve Monroe
