drive-in and online worship services

No one is looking forward to another month of isolation. Another month of not being able to use our beautiful churches for worship. Another month forbidding us from visiting hospitals or shut-ins. But this trial will do nothing but make us stronger and more faithful. God still comes to us with His gifts. Perhaps this will make us more sympathetic to the plight of Christians around the world who are oppressed and prevented from openly worshiping not by a disease but the evil scourge of petty overlords. But, the prayer hotline to God’s ears is still open, and strange as it will be (and has been) our worship will continue. Peace be to you all.

Drive-in church: How is that going to work?

  • We will have an altar outside with the cross, candles, and the elements

  • We have a complete bulletin to follow along with the service

  • We'll park such that people have the best "view" of the altar they can have.

  • Tune your car radio to 92.7 FM

  • We will broadcast the service on the radio and also record for online so those who do not come can still watch the service.

  • When it comes time for the Lord's Supper, Pastor will come to each car window individually. The elements have been handles with gloves. Intincture (dipping the wafer into the wine) is how the Sacrament will be distributed. The only person to touch their elements will be the communicant.

  • We'll look at how it went and plan for the future.

  • Right now, Maundy Thursday (still at Holy Cross) and Easter will be drive-in.

  • Only one Easter service at each parish is planned, and will be at the regular time (9:30 Holy Cross, and 11:15 Grace).

  • Due to the solemn nature of the Good Friday Tenebrae service, it will be recorded from the sanctuary and posted online.

  • The plan is for all Services Easter and forward to be drive-in until the ban on gathering is lifted.

  • Be on the lookout for children's messages, one has been posted. I will make more as I have time.

  • Check the church websites, they are constantly being updated.
