Good afternoon from Buchanan First Presbyterian Church.
I hope you are all safe and well. We resumed services last Sunday and will be continuing to meet with a modified service. As always, please stay home if you feel unwell or are anxious about attending. We will also continue our online worship so you can join us even if you are unable to attend physically.
We still look forward to things going back to normal, but we stay steadfast in our fellowship with each other. I want to share this exhortation from Galatians 6:2 (NRSV) “Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” Let us remember to lift one another up and work together to weather the rest of this storm and prepare for the work God is calling us to.
The Session of Buchanan First has requested a survey of the congregation for feedback regarding the ceiling in the sanctuary. We received two quotes, one for replacing the tile with new tile and another for removing the tile and revealing the wood beneath. If you would like to give the Session feedback, or would like to see pictures, please contact me at ryanwilleybfpc@gmail.com.
Please feel free to contact the church if there is anything we can do to help. I look forward to seeing you soon and keep you all in my prayers.

I hope you are all safe and well. We will be resuming our physical services this Sunday. As part of the reopening processes, some elements of the service will be abbreviated or altered to protect the safety of our congregation. Masks will be mandatory, in accordance with the Health Department’s recommendations, with exceptions for those who cannot wear masks for health reasons and children under the age of 10. Please stay home if you feel unwell or are anxious about attending. We will also continue our online worship.
Let us remember to celebrate the goodness of God and strive to live faithfully. As an encouragement, let us remember the words of Paul from the book of Philemon, verses 4-6 (NASB):
“(4) I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers, (5) because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints; (6) and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for Christ’s sake."
Let us be glad because of the abundant gifts of God, and have hope together in the fullness of God’s love.
Please feel free to contact the church if there is anything we can do to help. I look forward to seeing you soon and keep you all in my prayers.
Oh my. Be safe and healthy!
I’ll be watching online for a bit longer.
