Brethren, as our worship services move online temporarily, be sure to make out the time and stay focused during the time for service (Sunday & Friday) with your family / household.

Attend to the online services like you are physically sitting right in church. Get out your bible, your notes, your offering (via online) and participate fully – in worship, bible reading, praying & giving etc. “Your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.” – Matt 6:4b

Finally, “do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it” – Isa 8:12b NIV. Remember, by the blood of Jesus Christ and our faith in God, we have access to “exemption & protection” privileges!
