The Future of The Light Church: Some Significant Updates
Show Notes

Pastor John shares some important updates regarding some significant, exciting, but also bitter sweet, changes to The Light Church. 

Summary of Next Steps for The Light

Last Sunday - After several weeks of discussion amongst leadership, as well as prayer discerning and consideration, Sunday April 12th (Easter) will be our last public service.

Church Move - We have informed St. Michaels that we intend to conclude our lease at the end of April. This will give us time to organize our current inventory and make arrangements for a move. Our tentative date for a community wide moving party will be Saturday April 18th. 

Home Groups - Similarly to Sunday services, Home Groups will conclude in April. The exact date of last meetings will be determined by each group and their leaders - but all meetings are currently suspended in light of COVID-19. 

Sunday Service Visits - As we conclude our Sunday gatherings, we want to prioritize helping current members get connected with a new local church. In order to make this transition smoother, we are organizing group visits to several area churches for Sunday services as well as providing a larger list of recommended local churches.  

Light Leadership Network - While we are ceasing to continue in our current format, we believe that God is providing an opportunity for The Light to continue to make an impact through the development of a leadership network for past and present members. This opportunity has been in the works for almost a year and more details will be provided in the coming weeks about what this will look like and how you can be involved.
