Great Love
I love this verse of the hymn, The Love of God. Such a great reminder how GREAT our God is.
Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
We will be meeting together this Sunday, March 14, 9am service only. We will be live streaming both 9am and the 11am service. Once again, we leave the decision of wearing a mask and/or social distancing up to you. We have hand sanitizer and masks available for your convenience, and the facility is clean. If you do not feel well or have possibly been exposed to COVID, please stay home.
Thank you for your faithfulness and generosity! There are several ways you can give: We have a drop box by the office door, mail your check, use your bank's Bill Pay option and have them send your check, give as you exit the Sunday service, or give online here: https://emcaz.org/give. Again, thank you!
Your end-of-year giving statements have been distributed. We changed our giving platform in the spring of 2020, so you may receive two giving statements, via email and/or mail. Please combine them for your total contributions of 2020. Let me know if I can help you in any way.
If you know of anyone who needs help, or need to contact the office, please call (623.386.0300) or email (annk@emcaz.org) and I'll respond as soon as possible.
Looking forward in HOPE!
