Friends;
Let's use our Facebook to keep in touch with one another as a class.
FIRST, let's just check-in and let everyone know how you are doing. Shirley and I are following the guidelines for social distancing.
SECOND, let us know if you have any needs or are able to help others in need; grocery shopping, picking up medicine, etc.
THIRD, let's pray for each other, our families, our church, our State, our nation, and our world. I found a number of prayers for this time. I especially appreciate this one:

Jesus Christ, you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.” At your command, the sick were made well. Come to our aid now, in the midst of the global spread of the coronavirus, that we may experience your healing love.
Heal those who are sick with the virus. May they regain their strength and health through quality medical care.
Heal us from our fear, which prevents nations from working together and neighbors from helping one another.
Heal us from our pride, which can make us claim invulnerability to a disease that knows no borders.
Jesus Christ, you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.” Come to our aid now, that we may experience your healing love.
Jesus Christ, healer of all, stay by our side in this time of uncertainty and sorrow.
Jesus Christ, you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.” Come to our aid now, that we may experience your healing love.
