Reopening the Church

A brief walkthrough so you will be aware of some of the changes we're making and what Sunday mornings will be like, for now.

Let's see your most regrettable hair styles!

Church History 6 - Arianism and the Trinity

The 4th century was ground zero for one of the biggest theological threats to Christian faith, but God used the controversy to lead us toward a clearly articulated understanding of his triune nature. Cool, right?

Happy Birthday to our very own Pastor Aaron! If you get a moment, be sure to send him a text or drop a note below to let him know how much we appreciate him and all he does!!!

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.

To our fallen troops - those who paid the ultimate sacrifice - we thank you and we remember.

What's an all-time classic movie that you've never seen?

From Pastor Aaron regarding reopening plans (letter dated May 15)

Dear Church Family,

I hope you are doing well! The coronavirus and the ensuing quarantine has affected all of us in ways we probably did not expect. It has reminded me that my faith, my trust, my life, and ALL my hope is in Jesus Christ.

On March 22, we closed the doors to the church and moved exclusively to online services. By the grace of God, your faithful giving, prayers, and support has allowed us to continue our ministries, pay our staff, and support overseas missions. We have provided snack packs to Chelwood Elementary, we're making plans to help Manzano with a modified graduation, many people have started watching our services online, and we've been able to stay united through prayer and in anticipation of the opportunity to gather again, in Jesus's name.

Earlier today (May 15), the governor of New Mexico announced that churches could begin meeting at 25% of their occupancy capacity (for us, that means 45 people)! Thank you, Jesus! This is a huge answer to prayer, so here's how we will handle reopening Monterey's building for in-person services.

We are expecting to reopen on June 7, with two worship services: 9 and 10:30am. Everyone will be required to wear a mask, because it's the law starting tomorrow (May 16). We will not have Sunday School, Children's Ministry, or Youth Ministry during this first phase... or coffee. If you are not comfortable coming, I completely understand. We will be live-streaming our 10:30 service onto our website and facebook.

We aren't reopening sooner because we still have some supplies being shipped and some logistical issues to work through in order to comply with the updated restrictions. I'm eager to get together again, but rushing leads to bad decisions.

All these plans are tentative because the government has shown an ability to change restrictions rapidly, so keep praying and keep trusting Jesus. See you in June!
