Praise Temple update on the Corona virus Friday, April 3, 2020:
We want to start off by saying how grateful to our staff, leadership team, and facility workers for stepping up to ensure the safety of our members and community. We put the clarion call out and and everyone went above and beyond to follow all safety measures and guidelines put in place. Unfortunately we have to make new changes to our worship services and social gatherings. As new guidelines were put in place by local and state government, we are obliged to follow. Sunday, April 5 we will only stream our services Facebook Live Sunday @11:00 on the PT Hour of Power with Dr. Donnie Young. Due to the Shelter in Place order placed in Dallas County, we have identified the essential personnel needed for our online service. We are asking our members, partners, and friends to log on to Facebook@Margaret Young, that is Pastor Margaret’s Facebook page, to view our services live. We want to ensure support for this new endeavor, so we are asking you to let us know you are watching. Please know our belief is stronger than ever and we know God is still in control, however, we will put in place the necessary precautions needed to ensure the safety of all our members and community. We will have members of the finance department and the deacon board available from 10:00-10:30 for members to drive through and drop off all monetary support, offerings, and donations during this time. You may also make your donations and offerings online through our online giving platform givlify; click on the blue give button. You may also call in your prayer request to our prayer line # 1-302-202-1102; code: 949139. We encourage everyone to make sure you are adhering to safety measures that are put in place as you go about your normal daily routines: Although we are modifying our services, when are able to gather together again, we will sill enforce the following measures until other wise notified and we will continue monitoring all news updates that will help us make informed decisions.
- We will limit all immediate contact to a fist bump or elbow bump
- We will provide hand sanitizer in the common areas (front foyer, restrooms, fellowship hall coffee shop and bookstore)
- We will also sanitize all equipment with the necessary products after each service
- We will limit contact during alter prayer and wear the necessary coverings such as gloves to provide immediate protection
Although we are taking the necessary precautions and making the necessary changes outlined by our government officials, that does not diminish our faith and trust in God. We will continue to pray for our families, our church, and our country. Remember we are the light of the world, so as Christians we will not panic as we are the voice of reason that the world will look too. During your prayer and confession time, we will stand in unity and confess Psalm 91:10: There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
Stay in Peace,
Dr. Donnie & Pastor Margaret Young
