Dear Liberty Hill family,
This past Sunday when addressing you about the present global concern about COVID-19, I stated that we have to find an appropriate response that gives in to neither extreme of hysteria nor foolish bravado. When dealing with unknown factors and complications, that response can be difficult to find. Jesus calls us to be “wise as serpents, but harmless as doves” (Matthew 10:16). It is from those words that I believe our church should respond to the COVID-19 crisis with a commitment to do no harm.
With all local school districts temporarily closing, and with our government’s request and instruction for avoiding public gatherings of more than 10 people, Liberty Hill will temporarily suspend all of our regularly scheduled services, events, and groups effective immediately.
We are not, however, suspending our efforts to minister to our community.
On Sunday, we will offer one service, available online only at 9:00 AM. We will do our best to present this service the same way we would on any normal Sunday morning. We have worked diligently over the course of the last year to improve our online experience, believing that it has the potential to reach more people than we do with our live services. It appears that this is now our time to prove it! I recommend that you attend our online service through our website, www.LibertyHill.Church rather than using Facebook, though. Thousands of churches were closed this past Sunday, and many of those attempted to use Facebook as the only platform for hosting their services. The end result of that was an overload of Facebook’s resources during the normal worship hours of Sunday morning. We have experienced technical difficulties before with our online service, and the great majority of times those were due to issues with Facebook, not with the hosting platform we use on our own website.
Additionally, Pastor Brandon will be speaking to our students via livestream on Wednesday nights at 6:30 PM. He will continue to work with our students and carry on the ministry of The Hub digitally. However, we will have to postpone the events and experiences that are scheduled to occur over these next few weeks. Pastor Brandon will be sharing all details to parents and students and will be able to address any questions or concerns you may have.
All Life Group meetings are temporarily suspended. However, some Life Groups will be developing strategies for continuing to meet. If you have questions about your particular group’s meeting, please contact your group leader directly. Please understand that it may not be possible for all Groups to still meet regularly, or find alternate ways of meeting, no matter how badly they would like. We trust the wisdom and compassion of our group leaders and will be working with them in any way we can to find solutions. Be patient with us as we look for solutions, and also to any other new and unforeseen problems that may arise.
We are not putting a time frame on these temporary changes but will instead take counsel and make decisions on a week-to-week basis. We of course will keep you posted as plans change. When these present changes are lifted, we look forward to once again raising the roof in our little country church out in the middle of the boonies!
These are stressful and frustrating times. I know this on a personal level, as well as a pastoral level. Many people around our region – and our nation – are worried. Many are angry. We may all be a little of both, changing from hour to hour throughout the day. But those feelings will pass because we choose to see these as changing times that are overshadowed by an unchanging God. We will remain steadfast and immovable in God’s grace, and choose to also remain steadfast and immovable in His work (look again at the promise of 1 Corinthians 15:58). I encourage you to seize opportunities to do good, offer encouragement and hope, and be shining lights in a world that is afraid of the dark.
And at all times and in all places, we will continue to bless the Lord.
Grace Received,
Pastor Joe
