Pastor's Update - May 25

Greetings Church,
I pray that this finds you all doing well and staying safe and healthy.  I also hope that you are enjoying your Memorial Day weekend, and giving thanks for all those that have paid the ultimate price for our freedoms.
I just wanted to take a moment of your time and let you know a couple of things that are going on at the church, in case you missed service yesterday:

I received notification from the Bishop on Friday, May 22nd, that all churches in the North Central District including Blue Ridge F.U.M.C. will remain closed through the month of June.  He also said that he will communicate with us in the next couple of weeks about July.  He has stated time and time again that until there is a decrease in COVID-19 cases in our counties we will remain closed, in hopes keeping people safe while exhibiting the words that John Wesley spoke, “Do no harm” (to people). 

• In the coming weeks you may notice that church buildings further away from the Dallas, Plano, McKinney areas are re-opening, and that is simply due to the lower number of COVID-19 cases in those outlying counties.
• We (B.R.F.U.M.C. leadership) are currently working through a process for re-opening, so that when we are allowed to reopen the doors of our building we are ready.  When the time comes to reopen the building, things will most certainly be different from the last time we met in March.  As you, yourself, consider coming back to the building I hope that you will consider your own health risk and act accordingly.  As ready as I am to get back in the sanctuary, I want even more for all of you to be safe.
• We are also working to prepare and improve our online presence, when we are given the go ahead to reopen the building.  So that those who wish to continue worshiping online will be able to do so.  

I hope that you have noticed that throughout this writing I have referred to re-opening our building, that is because we the church are still OPEN and ALIVE!  We are gathering, we just aren’t gathering in the same place or in the same manner that we used too.  If you haven’t joined in lately, on any of the weekly meetings that we have, I want to encourage you to do so.  We have an online Sunday school class meeting on Sunday as well as our worship service, then we have a Tuesday evening study at 7:30p.m. and a Wednesday evening Study at 7:00p.m.   We do have the ability to setting up additional meetings, if there is a need.
To close, I want to say,  “THANK YOU!” 

• Thank you, to all of you who have stuck with us during this trying time.
• Thank you, to the folks that have gone out of their way to do something for someone else.
• Thank you, to the ones that have gone the extra mile to make our on-line services more personal.
• Thank you, to those that have continued to support our church financially.
• Thank you, to those who have prayed for our church, our church family, your pastor, the leadership of B.R.F.U.M.C. and anyone else during this pandemic.
• THANK YOU!

I have come to realize that when all this is over and we re-open the doors, we will be a better church because of the valley that we are now travelling through.  Please continue to give praise to God for the things we do have and the sacrifice He has made for us all, while staying safe, until we gather again on Wesley Lane in Blue Ridge, TX.

God Bless!
Love,  Grace & Peace,

Pastor Chuck Jestis

Just like any other organization we have to have funds to do the things we do.  Things like Vacation Bible School, heat and cool our building, feed the hungry, worship, etc.  Without the monetary donations we receive we would not be able to touch others in the name of Jesus Christ. tithe.ly/give_new/www/#/tithely/give
