Hello!

This week, August 16, 2020 we met again outdoors behind our Big White House under the shade of the jacaranda trees.  

Of course the chairs were set apart for social distancing and we had ice cold water available.  Come join us next week if you couldn't make it this week.

COVID-19 Protocols in Our Church

we sanitze it after each service...
social distance amongst congregants...
require a face mask...
and remind folks if they feel sick, then they should stay home...

Here are some photos of what our outdoor worship area
 looks like before the folks show up.
We hope to see YOU in one of these social distanced chairs with us soon!

We continue covet your prayers at this time.

Again, this weekend we have prepared a worship page for you that includes...
Thursday Night's Bible Study Powerpoint AND the Zoom meeting recording.  (Harvey remembered to push the "record" button this time.  

The Children's Sunday School Lesson from Mrs. Denise...

some great YouTube versions of Christian Hymns and contemporary songs...

And for the main message by Pastor Harvey, we continue the amazing story of love and redemption from the Book of Ruth; this week is Chapter 3.

We hope this continues to bless you and draws you closer to God.

Remember, Denise and I are a phone call away if you want to pray together or just chat.  (Also remember that God is NOT far away, He has promised that He would never leave us - can I get an "Amen"!) 

Please feel free to share this page with others; friends, family, strangers, enemies, etc. (we ALL need Christ! - Amen!)

And don't forget to comment below about anything that we can help you with.
Or any conversation you would like to start.

Thanks for all of your support!
For Him and His Kingdom,
Pastors Harvey & Denise

So we know this song at Highland Park Christian Church as "Saved Everyday" - This version starts with the chorus and changes the lyrics around a bit.  But the spirit of the song is the same.  Hope it blesses you.
