Dear PBC Family:
Forgive me for the last-minute update, but the elders have just agreed to change our plans and cancel ALL services for today, March 15. We've been hesitant to prematurely cancel services for a handful of reasons, but we learned this morning that the cities of Williamsburg, York County, Newport News, Hampton, and Poquoson issued a joint statement urging Peninsula residents to avoid gatherings of more than 50 people. At this point we believe that cancelling is a matter of submitting to our governing authorities.
Since the joint statement did not have a end date, the elders will reassess this issue on a weekly basis. Please pray for us as we seek to shepherd faithfully in the midst of everything that is going on around us.
Please some time today to pray for God to intervene and bring a swift end to this pandemic. I hope to be able to share the sermon I prepared to preach today on Facebook Live sometime today. Stay tuned for more details.
Praying for you, my dear church family. Please let a fellow member or an elder know if you find yourself in need during this time.
Christ is All,
Pastor Hopson
