Following the excellent example of Pastor Paul Van Noy of Candlelight Church, the Church IS up and running! It is up and running in a wise, responsible, temporary way of tending to his sheep.

In Proverbs 3:5-7 God urges leaders to “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not rely on your own insight… Be not wise in your own eyes …”

This TEMPORARY social distancing has not been mandated to obstruct the First Amendment but to use the wisdom of health care providers and our government officials to protect people. And I see many wonderful people and ways that goodness is being shared.

Pastors, please tend your sheep responsibly.

Blessings and continued maintenance of good health procedures for all of the citizens of Coeur d’Alene, our nation and the world.
