Ash Wednesday Worship Service

March 2 at 7 p.m. We will have worship with scripture, prayer, and the imposition of ashes, marking the beginning of our remembrance of the Season of Lent. Please join us for this special evening of worship.

Daylight Savings Time

Daylight Savings Time begins on Sunday, March 13. So, when you go to bed on March 12, be sure to set your clock AHEAD one hour. That way you won’t be arriving for church while the rest of us are leaving!

Masking Update

At the January Session meeting, the Session decided to watch the Indiana COVID-19 Dashboard and Map and if the county is in RED we will wear masking at church. When the county is ORANGE for two consecutive weeks we will return to masking is optional for vaccinated and strongly encouraged for the unvaccinated. 

This past Wednesday Marion County was moved to ORANGE status. We will look for two consecutive weeks and then return to our mask optional status while in the building. Mask will still be required for singing.

If masking is not “your thing,” then join us on Facebook Live for the next three weeks. If you have any concerns regarding these actions, contact Pastor Beth directly or contact one of our ruling elders. -Pastor Beth

Church School Updates

Patty McKinnon will resume her Adult Church School Class once Marion County goes to orange for two Weeks.
 
The Education Team has made the decision to cancel the children and youth church school classes. The plan is to have prepared “Church School Take Home” boxes ready to distribute the week prior to Ash Wednesday, March 2. The lessons will go through Lent and Easter for eight weeks. Parents will be asked to give feedback to see if these are helpful. If you are a parent, please contact us if your family would like to receive one of these boxes.

Crew Car Wash Tickets

As a fundraiser for the 20/20 fund, we will be selling Crew Car Wash tickets in the hallway between services each Sunday in February. As in past years, each ticket costs $10, and half of that is given back to John Knox as profit. Tickets never expire and can be used at any Crew Car Wash in Central Indiana. With a new location just south of the Church on High School Road, this will be extra convenient for keeping your car clean and looking good. If you are not attending church in person right now and would like tickets, contact Barb Williams and we will arrange to get tickets to you. Thank you.

Remember to wear your masks while in the church building and stay home if you're sick in any way. We can all do our part to keep people healthy if we remain diligent and care for one another! If you are eligible to be vaccinated/boosted and have not already done so, please consider making an appointment today!

Blessings,

Pastor Beth
