Welcome to the

FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH

of Herrick

We are continuing to do our best in combating the spread of COVID-19 and still allow for service in coming to God in all of this.

Please check back often as we are changing time of services in order to accommodate the safety precautions that need to be taken and yet not close the doors to the church entirely. 

Thank you for your patients in all of this and we will continue to keep you all in our prayers.

     We have implemented a few changes to better accommodate our congregation during this COVID-19 pandemic.  We understand it is your decision as to attend or not attend services based on your understanding of what is best for you and your family.  We will not judge you in that decision, but continue in pray for this all to pass.  We also ask that you do the same with those that wish to continue attending services for this is their decision as well.  We all want to honor God in all of this despite what our views are in this current climate.  We pray one day we will all be back together again soon.

     That being said we have adjusted our service times.  Our morning will be moved back to a 9:00 am slot and will start moving back to more of a traditional service as opposed to the blended traditional / contemporary service we have been having.

     We will also be opening our contemporary "Living Water" service in a 6:00 pm slot.  We have done this for a few reasons, one to allow for the cleaning of the sanctuary between services and two it will help to spread our congregation out some so that there are fewer people at one time.

     Are mask required?  No not required, but suggested especially if you are highly susceptible to the virus or are in the high risk category of suffering the fatal effects of this virus.  Understand since we are not mandating the wearing of masks if you attend there may be others there without masks on so again it is your call to attend or not attend and to wear a mask or not wear one.  Please do not judge others in their choices one way or the other.  The goal is to keep the church doors open ESPECIALLY in light of what is going on in the world today.

     We will keep you all in our prayers and are praying for this all to come to an end so we can freely worship God in a country that we are still allowed to do so.  Take care and may God bless you.

"The Books of Peter"

     We have stated a sermon series on "The Books of Peter".  Each week we will study the books or letters that Peter wrote to the Christians of what is now modern day Turkey.  We will learn who Peter is and the trials the early Christians faced from the persecutions they faced to the false teachers that would try and lead them astray.  These letters apply just as much to us today as it did to them in the first century. 

Join us Sunday at 9:00 am for our blended traditional/contemporary service or our 6:00 pm contemporary service to hear more.  We would love to have you join us.  If you cannot join us, or to catch past messages, you can listen online at our podcast page.
