How do we find Divine presence in the face of discomfort? How do we find refreshment from the hard places in life? Join us today for "Led Into The Unknown: YHWH... Are You With Us Or Not?" We will wander Exodus 17:1-7 with our questions and doubts, along with some Sister Joan Chittister and Benedictine Monastic Sister Macrina Wiederkehr. We will be practicing Safer Church, with some Social Distance and Care Full Communion. Folks are encouraged to make their own decisions regarding attendance based on their individual circumstance. If you don't feel well, please stay home. A recording will hopefully be available this afternoon. Peace and

Have you ever set out on a journey, not knowing where you're going, where you will end up, and what will happen along the way? Yes, you have- we all have. It's the journey of Life! Join us today for "Led Into The Unknown: Calling & Blessing" as we see what we can learn from Abram's relationship with God, and his journey into the unknown.

MCC NoVA AND
THE CORONAVIRUS
Part II

Following some best practices in times of transmissibility, we will be changing some things around. Religion should teach us many things about life, but most of all, good religion should teach us to be open to transformation, change, and new possibilities.

We are a huggy people, but we also want to be a healthy people. We encourage creativity with new forms of greeting that don’t involve hugs (or Elbow Bumps – when we feel the need to cough, where have we been taught to cough? Yes, right in the crook of our elbow.).

Our means of serving Communion, as well as Communion Blessings, will be transforming as well. We will provide updates and instructions as we care fully move forward as a caring community. Thank you so much for your willingness to change!

Announcement from March 1

MCC NoVA AND
THE CORONAVIRUS
Part I

Being mindful of the news regarding the spread of the 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) MCC NoVA will take prudent steps of cleanliness as needed to safeguard your attendance while at church functions and ask those attending to follow simple health guidelines when gauging your participation. Steps such as: washing your hands often for at least 20 seconds, avoiding touching your eyes or nose and mouth with unwashed hands, avoiding close contact with people who are sick, staying home when you are sick, covering your cough or sneeze with a tissue, and cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched objects and surfaces may all contribute to more healthy outcomes. We will update moving forward as necessary. If you need assistance or have any questions...Rev. Emma and our Board of Directors are ready to assist and support.
