Mark 10:35-45: Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.” “What do you want me to do for you?” he asked. They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.” “You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?” “We can,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared.” When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Mark 10:32-34: They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again he took the Twelve aside and told them what was going to happen to him. “We are going up to Jerusalem,” he said, “and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles, who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise.”

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Our Lord says to us in Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God.  I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!  The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.”

As we ponder those words, knowing, trusting in His promises and desiring the safety of all, we will be immediately going to an online-only worship beginning Sunday, March 15th, 2020. There will not be Bible Study, Sunday School, nursery, mid-week Soup Suppers, Choir Practice, and our mid-week Worship will be an online-only sermon recording available on the FLC website.  Volunteers positions such as acolytes, ushers, greeters, sound techs, etc. will not be needed during our online-only worship services.  Small groups are invited to meet at their own discretion and the church building will be available for these groups if needed.

Why move worship to online-only during a pandemic?

1. We are loving our neighbors by protecting our neighbors.

2. We are not being fearful. We are being responsible.

3. This is what “Showing the love of Jesus to people everyday” looks like in this season.

4. You can worship Jesus together in any place.

5. The church is people not a building.

Our pastors, the Lay Leader Board and the Board of Elders are carefully and continually monitoring this situation. As information evolves, our website is the primary, most up-to-date place for you to receive answers to commonly asked questions. We are committed to doing everything we can to provide a safe environment for our church family and surrounding community.  

If there are any updates we will be sending out emails AND updating our website with the news.  In the meantime, we look forward to being with you online at our regular worship times of 8:15 and 11 am.  We would encourage mailing in or dropping off your offering and capital campaign contributions at the church, and we will be working on online giving options at the same time.  This time of year can be a low point in terms of meeting our budget so your continued financial contributions will be very vital to FLC.

John 12:1-8: Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.” He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it. “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.”
