3/16: WPUMC Response to Coronavirus

3/23/2020

 
Originally published March 16, 2020
​
WPUMC Family and Friends,


Greetings on this Monday, as we start a week with new challenges and possibilities!

Over the next few weeks, we will send an extra email or two to keep us connected as a church and faith community. Even if we can’t be face to face, we can connect heart to heart and live into being the church beyond the walls. Keep updated with information on our Facebook page (“Washington Park UMC”) and here on our website.

Things are moving quickly these days, and your pastors and church leaders are doing all we can to keep up with the most current CDC guidelines. Your pastors will also be on a call on Thursday with the Governor and other faith leaders to keep updated on recommendations. Thank you for your grace and flexibility!

WORSHIP
If you were unable to join us live for virtual worship yesterday, you can find the service by clicking HERE.
Our Mountain Sky Area Bishop, Karen Oliveto, has encouraged our conference churches to suspend in-person worship through at least 3/29/2020. Join us live on Sundays at 9:30am on our Facebook page. We will also have our worship podcasts uploaded on Sunday afternoons, to connect CLICK HERE.
  • Prayers/Joys and Concerns: Let’s remain connected! Email Rev. Sandi (pastor@washparkumc.org) and Rev. Jamielee (assocpastor@washparkumc.org) with any prayer concerns or celebrations. Or use the online prayer request form instead. Please specifically tell us if the prayer concern or joy is for pastors only, or if you want it shared with the larger community (we will share concerns in our regular Thursday E-newsletter).
  • Offering: Our church relies on your tithes and gifts to pay our bills and cover staff salary. Thank you for continuing to be generous during this time. You’re welcome to give online here. If you prefer to write a check, please mail it to: WPUMC 1955 E Arizona Ave. Denver, CO 80210. Thank you.
  • Attendance: We want to know that you are connecting with us! If you join our Facebook worship, you can type your name in the comments at any time. If you’re connected to our online church directory through Breeze (see information below under “Church Directory”), you can check yourself in there under special events/calendar.

LENTEN TAIZE SERVICES
Our Wednesday Taize Services have been a cornerstone of our Lenten journey for many years. Steve, Rev. Sandi, and Rev. Jamielee are working on recordings that will be available via podcasts (connect HERE) on Wednesdays.

“HANDS ON” SERVICE CALENDAR
Even if the church building is closed, the CHURCH doesn’t close – our ministry continues! Keep following along with our Lenten Service Calendar (view HERE). Adjust any suggestions that feel uncomfortable for you. Collect food and other items – they are still needed! Keep those in the most need in your prayers.  

CHURCH DIRECTORY
If you are not already connected with our online church directory, or have questions, please email John (office@washparkumc.org) for more information. This is a great time to update your profile and upload a picture of your family – especially since sometimes we know faces and not names! Rest assured that your information is safe – no one can log into this site without church admin permission, and the only information that others can see is your contact information. You can also download the Breeze app for your phone or tablet!

CHURCH OFFICE
With the Preschool closing until April 7, and many of our tenants cancelling classes, our church office will assess building needs each day and adjust office hours accordingly. During this uncertain time, we appreciate your patience and flexibility. Please email John (office@washparkumc.org) or call 303-777-3043 to make sure someone is here if you need to drop by. If staff are not in the office, we will be working remotely from home. 

​Peace,
Reverend Sandi
