An Important Update from Pastor Jordan

Advent Denver

Hello beloved Advent family!
I'm writing to let you know the staff and I have decided to move church online only for the two weeks following Thanksgiving: Our Nov 29th and December 6th services will be online only, at 10am.

This decision is informed by three things: 1) Another anticipated surge of cases following Thanksgiving and our desire to be good neighbors to our community; 2) The reality that many Adventers will be traveling and having increased exposure over the holidays; 3) A small display love, respect, and support for our many healthcare workers and our hospitals as they are increasingly overwhelmed with cases and are fighting this battle in brave and tireless ways.

We plan to resume gathering in person for two services on December 13th, unless Denver moves from red to purple, in which case we will follow the city's increased requirements.

Although I think it is a wise decision, I grieve alongside you that this means we will not be physically together to begin Advent. It is a real loss. It may also serve as a fitting reminder that we are a people defined not by having all we desire now, but by hope - a fitting reminder during Advent as we await the restoration of all things. I continue to ask for and am so deeply thankful for your grace with the staff and I as we do our best to balance many logistical factors, levels of risk tolerance, and opinions about these kinds of choices. Really - thank you!

Alongside the bummer news, a few silver linings:

  • We've highlighted these Advent devotional resources, as a way to journey together in this season. Check them out!

  • We are excited about more Zoom Children's Ministry opportunities and some other ideas we hope you will engage with your church family. Look for more details from Brenda coming soon!

  • We will organize a Zoom Coffee Hour following each online service for those who want to stick around and connect. More details soon.

In case it is not clear, we WILL have two in person services this coming Sunday the 22nd, but will then be online only, at 10am, for Nov 29th and Dec 6th.

Remember... You are priests of God and temples of his Spirit! God's peace to you,

Jordan+
