Invitation to a 3-day Prayer Vigil

3/24/2020

Good afternoon,
            I ask myself, how many emails to the congregation? Am I sending too few, too many, or is the number just right? I don’t know for sure. I receive at least a 8 – 10 emails a day from the Presbyterian Church USA, Pittsburgh Presbytery, Wilkinsburg Community Ministry, other churches etc regarding what to know and how to cope with these pandemic days.
            Please excuse me if you receive too many, feel free to delete without reading. If you want more information from church, county, state, etc – let me know. I will oblige.
            Check out the two flyers attached regarding a prayer vigil at the Christian Church (Janet Hellner-Burris, pastor). Also here is a useful link that tries to address rumors regarding the pandemic before they gain a foothold.

God bless everyone. And if you hear of the need of a church member or friend or even a neighbor of ours in need of help, let me know.
Pastor Michael

Friends of the Sanctuary Project for Peace, The Wilkinsburg Christian Church invites you to join us in a three day prayer vigil starting on Sunday at midnight. Our Associate Minister Cecilia Sims is organizing this vigil and you can sign up for anytime day or night to participate. This is not a virtual prayer vigil, but we hope a continuous one in which the people of God pray for our community, nation and world in this time of pandemic.

If you would like to join us, please contact Minister Cecilia Sims at cildsims@yahoo.com.

Attached is the flyer.

Strength, peace and wisdom for such a time as this!
