 Dear Friends,

We REALLY want to continue to worship live together and not go to an online presence only. But in light of the increase of Covid cases and the continuing positive infection among some of our members, we need to change the way we do worship for a while. 
 
1. We are cancelling all other activities until after Thanksgiving, and we hope some of you can ZOOM your Bible studies together. 
 
2. For live worship, we are going to skip every other row again and REQUIRE masks for all except the smallest children. We prayed and discussed this, and we believe it will best help us to worship in person and get to celebrate the Christmas season together rather than having to go strictly online for worship. Please enter ONLY through the front door at Willlingham Street, and note that we will not have childcare or Children’s Church during this time. The worship center will continue to be sanitized each week, and bulletins will be laid on the pew.  While anyone is on the platform in a leadership role, masks will not be required.  We will mask up when we are not on the platform, however, and  require masks while in the worship center. 
 
3. Offerings will continue to be received in the boxes that are marked for that purpose, and we will not have a “greeting” time. The QR codes for giving online and for prayer requests and information updates will be in the bulletin so you can scan them with your smart phone.  
 
4. Our ballot vote on the 2021 FBC Cleburne Budget will be moved to Sunday, December 13, 2020.  Hopefully by that time, we can relax things and have resumed all of our vital Bible study and Discipling activities.
 
5. We will NOT have our church Thanksgiving dinner this year, but we hope the choir and handbells will be able to resume rehearsals after Thanksgiving so that we can have "Christmas around the Table" later in December.
 
At this point, we WILL plan to celebrate:
 
1. Our Live Nativity in Hulen Park on December 4th after the Christmas Parade. 
 
2.  Children’s “Christmas Breakfast with the Pastor” on Saturday morning, December 5th.  
 
3. The Lord’s Supper on Sunday morning, December 6th.
 
4. Our Christmas Eve service of candles & Lord’s Supper on December 24th.
 
We also anticipate that our Special Occasions Committee will be able to decorate the Worship Center for the Christmas season by the first Sunday of Advent, November 29th.
 
Please pray that the Lord will guard us all from the pandemic and bring healing to those who are infected.  Pray also that He will bring an end to Covid-19 soon.  Pray that we will have wisdom going forward to know how best to continue to worship and celebrate Jesus while doing what we must do to keep everyone safe and well.
 
Grace and Peace,
 
Danny
