Youth Director & Family Ministries

Posted September 30, 2020 By admin

Welcome Sarah Masterson

I’m excited to announce our first fellowship event post COVID-19. As you all know, we will be welcoming our new Organist, Sarah, on October 4th. In order to welcome her to our Church family, please join us for a cookout following the 10:30 AM service. We will all have the opportunity to meet Sarah and fellowship with one another after being apart for so long. All food and drinks will be provided and social distancing will be observed. Thank you for joining me in welcoming Sarah to St. Jacob’s. I look forward to seeing you there!

Trunk Or Treat

Our new youth committee met together for the first time in September. Moving forward, we will work together to plan events and share ideas for the advancement of our youth and family ministries. While planning for the remainder of the year, we have decided that October would be a great time to start meeting again as a church family! I would love to invite you to join us on October 31st from 5—7 PM for TRUNK OR TREAT at ST. JACOB’S! Anyone participating needs to be at the bus shed parking lot between 4 and 4:30 PM. Come, decorate your car, and fill it with candy.

Grace & Peace,

Rachel

Volunteers Still Needed

Posted August 30, 2020 By admin

Volunteers are needed for Sunday morning to serve as communion assistants, ushers and lay readers. We could also use a few volunteers who would help for a few minutes to wipe down and set-up the church for worship following the 8:30 AM service. Anyone who would like to help in this capacity should contact Pastor David.

Reminders Concerning Worship During Covid-19

Posted July 29, 2020 By admin

The congregation is reminded to follow a few simple changes during worship to help keep from spreading the coronavirus. Entrance into the building is through the Fellowship Hall only. As you enter, please use the hand sanitizer provided and wear your mask if you have one. Masks are not required but strongly suggested. Remember to keep at least six feet physical distance between you and your neighbor. Only occupy those pews that are marked for seating.

Now that we have resumed singing in worship, worshipers are asked to please remain seated while singing. Those seated in the pews should wear a mask while singing. This includes singing the liturgy and Psalm. Also, as we share the peace of Christ, we do so without physical contact (immediate family members may disregard). Waving, peace signs, or other gestures should be used as well as a vocal greeting.

Upon leaving at the conclusion of the service, please take your worship bulletin and any other debris with you. Do not leave it in the pews. Offerings and record of worship cards are placed in the basins on the table at the narthex doors. Please do not linger or visit within the church nave. Simply depart and vis-it outside so volunteers can begin preparing for the next service.

Easter Sunday

On April 12th, St. Jacob’s celebrated the Resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ. What an awesome price he paid so that we can be with him. Below are some pictures of individuals that assisted Pastor David during the service. We are so thankful for all that each of you do, especially the ones providing their gifts and talents at this time. Thanks so much!

Music Program Update

Posted March 2, 2020 By admin

As you know, St. Jacob’s is in the midst of discernment for our musical program and a search for a new Music Director/Organist. In the meantime, supply organists have been scheduled to accompany our congregation in worship for the coming months. Please continue in prayer for the leaders of our congregation, the Staff Support Team and all who are involved in the process. God grant us faith and patience as we continue to seek the one whom he has already chosen.
