· Current Status: Several classes are meeting online, and weekly sermon messages are available on our Facebook page and YouTube. If you need to come to the church, please contact Pastor Jerry in advance. Pastor Jerry and the Elder Ministry Team are evaluating when and how to proceed with reopening, but no decisions have been made at this time.

· Communication is Important! If you need assistance in any way (physically, spiritually, mentally, financially, grocery delivery, or otherwise), please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Let us know how we can pray for you. We have persons willing to shop or help in other ways too. We still have rolls of toilet paper available, please feel free to buy some from us. We were anticipating a need and trying to be proactive to help keep our church family covered, but there wasn't as much demand as we expected and we don't want to "get stuck" with rolls that don't fit our dispensers. Contact Kim Collins (southhavenfbc@gmail.com or 269-767-2226) or Pastor Jerry (revkoller@yahoo.com or 269-767-2188) if we can help in any way.

· Financial Assistance: While we do not have unlimited financial resources, we do have some benevolent funds available if you’re struggling financially. If you are in a good spot and willing/able to help others in need, perhaps you would consider a donation to our Benevolent Fund to help those who are struggling during this time.

· Be Safe: Please be smart in safeguarding yourselves—not only for your sake, but for the sake of others. If you are sick, stay home.

· Be Faithful: Please be financially faithful. Even though we cannot gather together, please remember that we still have expenses that need to be met.

· Be Prayerful: Please be in prayer for one another and for our nation at large.

We thank those of you who have donated for your generosity and support of this project to resurface our parking lot. So far, we have received $3090 and have $5000 in pledges for a total of $8090. The cost to resurface the lot was $10,650.00. If you are able to make a donation to help us meet our goal of funding the full cost of this maintenance, your financial contribution would be greatly appreciated. Be sure to mark “Parking Lot” on your gift.

We are keeping our web page (southhavenfbc.com) updated regularly. Please use it as a tool. Under "Resources" we have a page for FBC Members only which has our latest emails and letters from Pastor Jerry (https://www.southhavenfbc.com/for-fbc-family-only). If you try to access this page, you will need the password "Know Him" to see the content.

We need help maintaining the church’s flowerbeds. If you're looking for a reason to get out of the house and yet still maintain your social distancing, feel free to stop by church at your convenience and pull weeds from whatever flowerbed catches your eye. If you contact us in advance, we can arrange for the garage to be open so you can get tools, otherwise feel free to bring your own. Once life returns to normal, we'll work on adopting flower beds as we have in the past.
