Oakland EFC Restarting Live Services




Heb 10:24 — Heb 10:25
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
  1. We will be limited to a 6 foot rule (either by govt "suggestion," common sense, or sensitivity to our Brothers/Sisters.)  
  2. Please use the main door. Signs will be on the other doors directing people to the main doors. Main doors will be propped open until the service starts and after the service ends. 
  3. Coffee will be not provided (it is fine to bring in your own coffee mug, but please keep it with you). Water bottles will be available on the way into the building.
  4. NURSERY - CHILDREN's gatherings will be ON HOLD until further notice.
    1. Encourage parents to keep their children with them at their seats (no children running around in the building.)  
  5. We want to encourage those who want to wear face masks and/or gloves to be comfortable doing so.
  6. We also want those who will be staying home and watching on the live feed to know that they are loved and part of the body as well. 
  7. Parts of the building not in use will be locked and/or blocked off. We request that you not go in those parts of the building. 
  8. Cleaning and sanitizing provisions are available on the way in the door and outside the bathrooms.
  9. Offerings and communion passing will not be allowed for a while.  We will have boxes for offering at the back of the sanctuary.
  10. Bulletin will be online. No physical bulletins or anything physical handed out.

I am going to use my personal blog to repeat public announcements for the Evangelical Free Church in Oakland regarding this issue. We will not be canceling church this Sunday, March 8, but we will update you if we need to cancel future events. We will be live streaming on our Facebook page, which you can reach here. https://m.facebook.com/pg/northeastnebraskaefree We have already decided that there will be no Super Supper this Wednesday, March 11. While we cannot control the virus, its spread, or the impact it has on our church, we are listening to proper authorities and suggesting the best practices to mitigate the risk and make our church gatherings as safe and clean as possible. We appreciate your cooperation and commi...

Thank You!

Here is an article I wrote for the November 2017 Newletter for our church, the Evangelical Free Church of Oakland, Nebraska. I normally post these on my ministry blog , but since this post is more personal, I decided to post it here. Thank You! Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 In this month of Thanksgiving, I wanted to be obedient to God, and express to Him my thanks for some of the many blessings He has given me. First, I am thankful that everyday and every moment, I can go into the presence of God because of what Jesus has done for me. I am a child of the king and my identity is secure in Christ, so that even when I mess up and even when I sin, I can run back and find love and forgivenness.
