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.

Volunteers Still Needed
Posted August 30, 2020 By adminReminders Concerning Worship During Covid-19
Posted July 29, 2020 By adminThe 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.

Music Program Update
Posted March 2, 2020 By adminAs 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.
