Coronavirus Update

Greetings once again!

Since our last correspondence regarding the Coronavirus situation our President has declared this to be a National Emergency. Here in Massachusetts our Governor has declared the Commonwealth in a state of emergency. In light of this we have found some Assemblies of God churches in our area cancelling tomorrow's services and opting for a live stream service to be viewed over Facebook. Most of our churches also video their services which are viewed later, after editing. See below for New Life live stream procedures.

We will keep our doors open tomorrow as planned but with some substantial modifications. Please read the following information carefully:

~ Anyone that has been exposed to the virus should stay at home.

~ Anyone that is elderly and/or has health issues should consider staying at home. 

~ The Haverhill Public Schools have cancelled classes for the next two weeks. Parents should use their judgement regarding their children gathering with other children here at the church. Again, preexisting health issues and overall health concerns will be a factor.

~ Greeting one another should be by "elbow bumps" and a smile. This is important for everyone, especially for the healthy and strong to be considerate of others who are not.

~ Please avail yourselves to the hand sanitizers located in the church. 

~ Prayer Time at the altar will be as follows: those in need of prayer will come and stand or kneel at the altar and the prayer team will stand behind them offering prayer and laying on of hands on the shoulder.

~ Coffee Room will be closed.

~ Pizza With The Pastor will be cancelled tomorrow.

~ Next weeks SALT Dinner & Fellowship will be canceled. 

~ Youth Group will meet as planned on Sunday at 6pm.

May we all endeavor to stay in prayer mode during this time. This is the first time the Body of Christ at large has faced such a health situation and we are trying diligently and prayerfully to do all we can do to help those that are affected and be a light and source of strength to one another and to our community. Please feel free to contact us or any one of our leaders should you have other concerns not addressed in this letter. 

Pray for healing! "If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."  

2 Chronicles 7:14

Trusting In The Lord,

Pastor Rick and Pamela
