This video really tells us the “Good News” regarding this virus. This doctor works directly with Covid patients and knows he will not get ill and has not become ill.
As this front line doctor from NY says they know more now than ever before.
It is long but well worth watching

I see after watching this video that we CAN meet. We just need to follow the stated criteria of washing hands, using Purell, and wearing a mask as an additional option.
So we will meet next Wednessay the 8th of April and then the following Sunday, Good Friday, at 2 separate locations as we did last week. There will however be no Sunday School Service for the kids. If any suspect that they have the virus of course you need to stay home. If anyone has a temp over 99.5 stay home.
It is very important that we meet. Especially in light of battles currently going on in our midst. We need to be united in the Spirit. We need each other.
If you are still concerned even after watching this video and feel to stay home I completely understand. Just know that I too have a family to protect and am convinced that they will be safe following the recommendations given in this video.
If anything changes between now and the next service I will send an update.
Hebrews 3:12-14 Living Bible (TLB)
12 Beware then of your own hearts, dear brothers, lest you find that they, too, are evil and unbelieving and are leading you away from the living God. 13 Speak to each other about these things every day while there is still time so that none of you will become hardened against God, being blinded by the glamor[a] of sin. 14 For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as we did when we first became Christians, we will share in all that belongs to Christ.
1 TH 5
12But we ask you, brothers, to acknowledge those who work diligently among you, who preside over you in the Lord and give you instruction. 13In love, hold them in highest regard because of their work. Live in peace with one another.
14And we urge you, brothers, to admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, and be patient with everyone.
15Make sure that no one repays evil for evil. Always pursue what is good for one another and for all people.
16Rejoice at all times. 17Pray without ceasing. 18Give thanks in every circumstance, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
19Do not extinguish the Spirit. 20Do not treat prophecies with contempt, 21but test all things. Hold fast to what is good. 22Abstain from every form of evil.
23Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blamelessa at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24The One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it.
25Brothers, pray for us as well.
26Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss. (well not yet!)
27I charge you before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers.
28May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.b
You see how they loved and shared with one another?
I send these scriptures to show how much we need the Spirit in each other. Each one having a place in the body for the body of which Christ is the head. So when we come it is to serve one another is it not? To have a heart to minister to one another.
This is the love of Jesus…
Acts 2:46-47
46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,
47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
I see this in so many homes of those here and praise the Lord for it. We need more of this and surely not less!
