To close or not to close

Last week, we had a little storm blow through here in Oregon and the discussion started around the leadership team wither the weather should have an effect on our services. in the 11 years our church has been open, we have only closed once because the person that was to unlock the building (the High School we were using) put his car into the ditch (it was snowy). Other then that, we have been very fortunate.

In respect to our main services on Sunday’s, we understand that weather conditions in our area can vary substantially from one neighborhood to the next.

I also realize that being in a neighborhood, there might be some who can walk to church and would like to fellowship with us. SO

With that those thoughts, I normally do all that I can to keep our place open for main events.

HOWEVER, even though the building may be open or an event has not been cancelled, people need to decide whether conditions in your area will allow for safe travel.

I think the only reason we would close our main service is if the building its self was unsafe or that the city would close the roads leading to our facility

Is that to harsh .. I hope not.

Have a Great Day
