December 12, 2020 - A Special Message From Pastor Ray

Greetings to everyone,

I hope you all having a wonderful day as we are in the midst of the Christmas season...celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior!! The glad tidings of great joy that were anounced to the shepherds on that first Christmas are just as true today even as we deal with these unusual circumstances. With that in mind, I want to share a few thoughts.

As we observe the rising number of COVID cases in our community, taken together with the serious consequences we know that this virus can have, especially on those with pre-existing conditions, we desire to demonstrate our love of God, our love for one another, and our love for our community by taking into consideration the following guidelines as we continue to gather through the New Year.

• Our building will remain open for services. If you choose to attend services in person, please continue wearing a mask at all times while inside of the building. We also ask that you continue to be mindful of social distancing guidelines and to be vigilant in your avoidance of congregating in common areas.
• We are inviting and asking those who are most at-risk, have pre-existing conditions, or those who are primary caregivers for loved ones who are at-risk to consider joining us for worship online through the New Year.
• Our mid-week prayer ministry will continue to gather on Zoom. We generally meet Tuesday afternoon at 2:30pm.
• Though our building will remain open for Christmas Eve service on 12/24/20 we are encouraging you to consider joining us online as the service will be posted as soon as possible after it is finished.
• Please let the church office or Pastor Ray know if you do plan to attend in person on Christmas Eve so we know how many to expect.
• We are asking those who attend on Christmas Eve to bring a battery operated candle if possible to be used for the candle lighting ceremony. You could also use the light on your cell phone (this will avoid touching and also blowing out the candles).

Thank you for continuing with us in patience, grace and understanding through these days. We will do our best to keep everyone informed of any changes in our schedule.

And may we all richly experience God's presence and blessing today!

Pastor Ray

Join Us On The Journey...

You're invited to worship with us at Honey Brook United Methodist Church - we are located at 4510 Horseshoe Pike in Honey Brook, in Chester County in southeastern Pennsylvania (in some places outside our community and on the Internet, you may see Honeybrook spelled as one word, but the correct spelling is two words, "Honey" and "Brook").

Service Times: Sunday School is from 9:30am to 10:30am and our Worship Service is at 10:45am. We hope you will join us in a Fellowship Time after the Worship Service.

We also have a Bible study every 2nd and 4th Thursday at 2:30pm.

When you worship with us you will experience a blended service of both traditional and contemporary music. Your spirit will be lifted by the voices of our adult choir, a real pipe organ, and a message directed to your day to day experience, all the while you are surrounded by 11 stained glass windows and are seated among Christians of all living generations. Our pastor offers a children's sermon every Sunday, and nursery is available for small children.

We are a small church where you will have an opportunity to get to know everyone and make new friends.

More information about Worship at Honey Brook United Methodist Church and Pastor Ray Voran is on the Worship page of this website.
