Emmanuel church members wish a Blessed and Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday season to all.
With cases increasing in the county, and the local government announcing today an investigation into an outbreak this week on Orcas, I am making the difficult decision to cancel in-person worship today, tomorrow, and Sunday. This decision is made out of an abundance of caution and deep care and concern for each of you. I want to thank so many of you who have put a lot of effort in making our church beautiful, rehearsing, inviting family and friends. I know this will be a big disappointment.
There will be one Christmas Eve service, live streamed at 5:00 pm, and available by recording thereafter. Only the ministers assigned will be in attendance. And, good news: yes, there will be music! Please worship with us virtually here. The bulletin is here.
There will be no Christmas Day services—the 12 noon service and the 6 pm Misa en español are canceled.
