Pastors Update:

Dear Brethren,

This week the state of Missouri lowered their restrictions on Church meetings as did Greene County.

The requirement for Greene County is that we stay below 25 people and practice Social Distancing. I’m not sure it is possible to practice Social Distancing as we are so accustomed to shaking hands and hugging one another that we do it without even thinking about it!

Do you realize that it has been over two months since we held a Church Service here in Springfield? We are being safe, as we should be, but I’m concerned that we are getting accustomed to staying at home and may want to continue to do so.

I need to call the Hall and see what their position is on us meeting and see if they have any concerns. I’m sure they do not do any cleaning of the property but I’ll have to ask and see what they say.

That aside, what are you all thinking? When do you want to start Services back up? Pentecost is May 31st so I’m hoping we will be back into our normal routines by then.

As for me, this is way to close to feeling like retirement! It doesn’t take long to get out of the practice of putting together sermons and speaking not to mention Lanora and I have done no prep work for the FOT this fall. Wynn says we will have to see what the future holds and then try and get it all together when we know what we are doing.

So please, speak up and let me know what you think. Phone calls or email is fine….

David Campbell, Pastor
