Update from Regathering Taskforce
02
Oct '20
The Regathering Task Force continues to meet to refine protocols and procedures to protect the congregation as much as possible during this uncertain time. We want to make sure we have done all we can to assure that no one is missing when we do gather together in person as a congregation.
If you are one of the individuals who enters the church to perform a necessary duty, we want to remind you to comply with the protocols including wearing a mask and follow disinfecting protocols. We also ask that you sign in and out on the clipboard by the office. This allows us to track who has been in the church and allows others to know if some one is in or has recently been in the church.
We ask that you stay away from the church campus from October 12th through November 9th (unless voting). Early voting will take place at the church. The church council decided to help the community by allowing our unused building to be used as an early voting site, as there was a shortage of such sites. Please stay away from the building until after November 9th to be safe.
For church groups that are meeting in people’s homes, we invite you use the safety protocols and stay safe, including using masks, staying six feet apart, meeting outside if possible, and sanitizing.
Small groups (10 and under) are permitted to meet in the church, except during early voting. If you have a group desiring to meet in the church, send the request to office@peaceausting.org at least five days before the event.

What? Me Worry?
27
Sep '20
Matthew 6:25-26, 34 : Jesus said, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today.” Read more…

Celebrating Creation on 9/20
18
Sep '20
This Sunday, we will have an opportunity to join in worship with Lutherans across the country and the world in a service created and led by Lutherans Restoring Creation. In many parts of the church these last weeks of the great green growing time of the Season after Pentecost are a time to focus on creation and our care for it. In this liturgy, many wonderful leaders in our denomination will offer music, prayer, and preaching for our reflection on this theme (including Bible scholar Rev. Dr. Barbara Rossing and renowned church musician Marty Haugen). Read more…

10/4/20 – Philippians
15
Sep '20
Philippians 3:12-4:23
On October 4, we will complete our discussion of Paul’s Letter to the Philippians. It is a letter of thanksgiving for the Philippians’ material support of Paul’s ministry. Paul’s thanks, however, are combined with the belief in God’s grace for both himself and the Philippians, and therefore God deserves the ultimate thanks. Paul expresses his warmest feelings for the Philippians, the freedom of joy in the Lord even as he is in chains, and he encourages them to be of one mind in Christ.

In a final session on Refugees, Mary Beth and John Foster will review the key points we have learned. Then they will share information about one of the local refugee agencies: Refugee Services of Texas.
