Gethsemane Lutheran Church Mission Statement
The Covid-19 Federal Emergency Declaration could be lifted in the coming months but that doesn’t mean the pandemic is over. So, what can we expect? We may have out-of-pocket costs for COVID-19 diagnostic tests and testing-related services. It may also mean the end of some support programs. Vaccines will continue to be free for most people with private or pub-lic insurance. Some states gave short-term Medicaid coverage for COVID-19 vaccines, tests, and treatment to the uninsured. But Covid will continue to spread and people will get sick and some will still die from it. That’s why it’s important that we continue to be diligent and aware of what’s going on in our immediate surroundings. That doesn’t mean people will be in masks forever, but they should wear them when necessary, and take preventive measures like disinfecting surfaces and washing their hands. Stay home when you aren’t feeling well and get tested. If you test positive, stay home until you test negative. To minimize the chance of infection and severity, always get the current recommended bivalent booster. It’s the right thing to do.
GALATIANS 6:9, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Remember these words the next time you feel yourself growing tired of your acts of service and generosity. There is more to come & more to be seen from God as we continue to do good!
