Lesters Chapel

• We have resumed in-person worship with certain guidelines in place.  The guidelines are important so that everyone, especially our most vulnerable (older adults & people with health conditions), feel safe to attend worship.  We are observing social distancing and require all people to wear a face mask.  (For a complete list of our guidelines, please email Deb Epley.)  What a blessing it is to visit with our church family once again, to hear the songs of the faith, and to receive the sermon from Pastor Deb again!  Please join us!  By the way, small groups (Sunday School, Soul Sisters Bible Study, Men's Ministry, Art with a Purpose) will resume after Labor Day.

​

• Mark your calendars because “New Day Bible Study” will begin a new study Tuesday, September 1st, at 10:00 a.m. We will be studying the book, Boundless Compassion: Creating a Way of Life, by Joyce Rupp.  We will incorporate spiritual practices like chair yoga and meditation exercises.  We do recommend you purchase the book because it has daily readings which are on the theme of the week. Of course, if you cannot purchase the book and you want to participate, that is fine. 

• Have you noticed the Blessing Box recently placed in our church yard? Cade Bailey, a senior at Chelsea High School, has built the Blessing Box for his Eagle Scout project. Cade chose our church because he thought it would be a natural outgrowth from our monthly Community Food Table. The Blessing Box is located under the trees near the playground, and he has stocked the box with some canned products for families in need of assistance. Anyone in need can take what he or she needs from the Blessing Box. Please spread this good news in the community. And thank you, Cade!
