March! It cannot already be the month of March! The time has passed quickly since January and the Chapel has many exciting events and services planned for the next few months. In review, the January 18th Board of Governors meeting welcomed new board members, new committee members, and lots of old and new business. Some highlights include adding the Columbarium Committee to the By-Laws as an official standing committee, learning that all Sundays for 2025 have ministers assigned, and thanking those that participated in the Choir Cantata, Operation Christmas Child, Share the Table Sunday night dinners, and the work done by all committees to get the 2025 budget in place as we start this new year. As for coming events, this newsletter is filled with dates and times for Lenten Luncheon, Lenten Bible study, and all the Holy week events including a dedication of the Columbarium on Easter Sunday! Check it all out!
Please pay close attention to the information about the Online Church Directory. We are making an intentional outreach to add new affiliates and to update the information of those already signed in. By the end of March, we hope to be able to offer a printed directory to those requesting one! This is yet another way for affiliates to connect!
So many of our visiting ministers describe our Chapel and how it functions as a “New Testament” church. With no paid ministers, they marvel at how it all gets done. It truly takes us all contributing to keep it going; but, what a joy to have a part in providing a house of worship for “any and all” and in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our little white Chapel sits on a small sliver of an island bordered by a huge Atlantic Ocean. Our worshipers come and go throughout the year, representing folks from all over the globe. Through each of these visitors, we have a chance to send out the truths of our living and loving God literally around the world! Wow! To God be the glory!
