Support and Devotions During COVID-19

---

During these difficult times, even as we return to our church building on Sunday November 28th for in-person worship, we are mindful that COVID-19 continues to have a significant impact both locally and globally.  

Below are some helpful articles that address COVID related issues such as grief, isolation and mental health. 

Please feel free to reach out to our minister for any support that you might require through this time. 

You can reach Rev Lionel by sending him a message through the 'contact page' of our website. 

May God's peace and love surround you during these days!   

- Blessings,  Rev.  Lionel
