“Historically, it is in crisis when the church has the most significant opportunity to live out its full mission of being the hands and feet of Jesus,” wrote Chad Stuart, senior pastor of Chesapeake Conference’s Spencerville church in Silver Spring, Md., in the church’s most recent e-newsletter. “When I say ‘the church,’ please note that I am not talking about the building, about programs, or events, or even preaching. When I say ‘the church,’ I’m speaking of the calling placed on each member to be a light of hope and help in their immediate proximity.”

Estimada familia de la Unión de Columbia,

Nos enfrentamos a un momento sin precedentes, y aunque no somos inmunes al impacto del Coronavirus, sabemos que servimos a un Dios todopoderoso que ve, se preocupa y quién es una ayuda siempre presente en tiempos de problemas.

A medida que avanzamos juntos en esta crisis, sepamos que hemos estado en contacto con los presidentes de nuestras conferencias e instituciones, y todos estamos orando por usted, y le pedimos que se una a nosotros para orar por sus familias, amigos, comunidades, los que dan atención médica y otros trabajadores de primera línea.

The move comes in response to state guidelines for higher education institutions in the state of Michigan as COVID-19 spreads throughout the United States. Other universities across the country are also making similar decisions.

With a goal of one million signed petitions, the Every Child Everywhere In School campaign has surpassed its half-way mark, reaching more than 556,000 signatures.
