It is forbidden for churches to have services. All church activities are cancelled.

The church is doing fine in spite of Corona. We are meeting on Sundays at the normal time using Zoom. It is a type of conference call in which we can see and hear all present.

The elders decided what was missing in this crisis is a sense of community. So our time together is not with singing and a sermon but interactive. We spend time sharing how we are doing, prayer requests, open prayer time and communion. Tonight we will start meeting also for Bible study.

Our understanding of “Church” is not passively sitting next to strangers while a show is taking place on the stage but according to Hebrews 10:24-25 we should be interacting with each other and everyone should be involved in building the church up.

Thus, the emphasis on community. We figure a sermon or music is something everyone can find on the internet but community is not.
