Welcome
Dear FBC Youngsville,
I want to THANK YOU for your wonderful encouragement and faithfulness over the last several weeks. Our online worship service is averaging between 200-300 weekly views, many of our Sunday Morning Bible Study groups and teams are meeting virtually, our giving is strong and we are contacting each other. FBC Youngsville may not be meeting physically, but we are continuing to be the church!
Over the last few weeks, I have been apart of many conversations about re-gathering. In fact, I virtually met with our Staff and Deacons this past Tuesday and Thursday. Among many things, we discussed a plan forward concerning meeting on campus.
During our conversation, we discussed what Phase 1 would look like for our church. Here are just some of the restrictions.
- Limited with just 25% seating capacity.
- Ushers would seat and dismiss attendees.
- Worshippers would be highly encouraged to wear masks.
- Six foot distance at all times.
- Restroom monitors.
- No choir.
- No welcome time.
- No childcare.
- No bulletins.
- Offering would be different.
- Invitation would not be the same.
- Sanctuary would need to be sanitized between services.
As a result of so many limitations, our staff, Deacons and I all agree that the best thing is for us to wait for Phase 2. Governor Edwards will inform our state on June 1st if we have met the criteria to move forward to Phase 2 on June 5. Below are the reasons why we have come to this conclusion.
- Our goal is a very safe return
- Many of our members are 65 plus
- See if there are any spikes
- Time to prepare for a safe re-gathering
- Current strategies are very effective
Like all of you, I'm more than ready to meet again. Yet, God's timing and God's peace are everything. We must patiently wait until it is right for us to return. In the meantime, we are working to ensure a safe re-gathering. Until then, let's continue to do those things that have allowed us to thrive during such a difficult event.
