APRIL UPDATE

At the beginning of November 2020 we made the decision to start Outdoor Church gatherings under the picnic shelters at Maiben Park, three blocks from our building. We meet at 3:00pm. According to State outdoor guidelines, everyone wears masks and are physically distanced. It has been a big encouragement to see each other.

We continue to gather via Zoom and livestream on Facebook at the regular time of 4:30pm. We also publish the sermon through our podcast.

Since November, the Family Support Center has been open for curb-side assistance, maintaining our regular hours, 11-4, Monday and Wednesday.

Gospels have been postponed, but Psalms continues to meet nightly at 9:00pm - masks and physical distance required.

As of March 12, 2020—Tierra Nueva Leadership made the decision to POSTPONE gatherings of

  • regular Sunday Worship Community

We want to still find ways to connect in smaller groups, to worship Jesus, to encourage one another, and remind one another that Truth speaks louder than life.

As I pray, I hear Jesus say, "Don't be afraid." So we don't operate from a place of fear, but seek to be wise and act in love to guard vulnerable people. Let's take care—of each other.

I ran across this today on Facebook and was greatly encouraged by it

Good news. Ready for it?
You need not fear a thing.

Feeling agitated, anxious, or worried?

Remember WHO you are in CHRIST! Remember your identity!
Refresh your mind with His Word!
Spend time worshipping God in your home!
PRAY!
Share the gospel - and the reason for your hope - with those who are worried around you.

Whatever you do - do not let the devil, and his puny weapon of fear, be lord of your life and your future. The devil was defeated at the cross and the grave. He ain't winning anything with fear. No matter what you might be facing, recognize that fear is a lie from the pit of hell. We have the victory and God gets the final say!

Press into God.
Look for His PRESENCE to manifest around you.

Wherever you are right now, let God know that He is welcome in your home, your office, our community, state and nation.

In Christ,
Pastor Mike
