Together in the Spirit

Our buildings are closed but our church is not!

While we have suspended physical gatherings for now, we remain the church. And while social distancing is our temporary norm, God is not at all distanced from us. Listed below are opportunities for spiritual growth. For more information on each opportunity, please see the church newsletter or the church website.

These are current areas we need help during this season. You can make a difference. If you’d like to help, please respond to the church by phone or contact Sharon Howard, sharonhoward@secondpreslr.org. Families and groups may sign up together. We will match you with one or more persons to reach and will send you instructions.

  • Making regular phone calls to one or more isolated members
  • Being a pen pal for one or more isolated members, sending a personal note, letter, photos, children’s art every week or so.
  • Delivering food, prescriptions or other essentials to one or more isolated members, arranging a safe delivery location.
  • Sewing masks for local health organizations and health workers.
  • Your financial gifts are appreciated, especially as we rise to meet increasing needs in our midst. Visit secondpreslr.org/giving for online giving.

Perhaps the Holy Spirit has shaped in you a particular way you’d like to help that’s not listed here. Please talk with any of the pastors.
