WORSHIP AND WEEKLY ACTIVITY ALTERATIONS

AT SOUTH SHORE UMC DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

​

In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, South Shore UMC has made the following alterations to our Sunday Morning Worship Services, Church Gatherings, and Community Gatherings. It is important for us to share this information with our church family and the community as part of doing our part to protect and preserve individual and communal health during this time. 

Effective through April 30, South Shore UMC will not gather for public worship. We will stream one blended worship service each Sunday at 11 a.m. via FacebookLive, which can be viewed by visiting www.facebook.com/southshoreumc. A Facebook account is not required to view our worship services via the provided link. 

• If you join us for worship via FacebookLive - either live or sometime during the week - please be sure to 'comment' you are viewing!
  • ​If you do not have a Facebook account, please email 'you viewed' to attedance@southshoreumc.com. 

  • We value your presence in worship as part of your offering to God!​

  • Please note, many religious organizations are using Facebook as their means to offer worship during this pandemic. 

    • If you experience visual or sound difficulties at the time of the broadcast - we apologize! - and invite you to reconnect to the broadcast later that day.  

    • SSUMC's A/V and Worship Teams are working hard to produce the best offering of steaming worship, with new enhancements each week.  

• Effective through April 30, 2020 - all South Shore UMC Activities and Community Group Activities that meet on the church campus are suspended.

  • This includes regularly scheduled Church Office Hours.

  • If you have questions, please connect with Staff Members via their email addresses located on the Staff Page. 

  • Messages left on the Church Office Answering Machine will be checked daily. 

• Continue your support of what God is doing through South Shore UMC by:

  • Mailing your tithes and offerings to the church. 

  • Giving electronically by selecting Give and Serve in the header of this page and following the instructions provided.

We look forward and pray toward the day when we can return to worship and church as usual. Until then, we invite you to participate in the following spiritual practice opportunities: 

1. Reading Psalm 91 every morning at 8:00 a.m.

2. Engaging the Daily #pictureLent Devotional posted to SSUMC's Facebook Page.

3. Joining Pastor Sarah for Daily Evening Prayer at 8:00 p.m. via FacebookLive on SSUMC's Facebook Page. 

4. Joining Pastor Sarah for our Lenten WednesdayWord Devotional Wednesdays based on Rev. Adam Hamilton's The Way at 11:30 a.m. via FacebookLive on SSUMC's Facebook Page. 

​

In this time of recommended physical  distancing, remember that physical distancing does not equate to isolation. There are many ways for us to be the Body of Christ together even when we cannot gather together.

​

Our God is good. Our God is with us. Our God never fails. 

​
