Moncton Wesleyan is online only this Sunday! We have had a direct conversation with the provincial health minister’s office. As we would be the largest event gathering in the city this weekend, they are requesting that we not have services in the church building this Sunday. Even though we can’t meet in the Celebration Centre, fortunately, technology still allows us to connect! Join us ONLINE THIS SUNDAY for a 10:30am (AST) livestream from Youtube, or visit mw.church/watch Remember our tithes and offerings can be given through mw.church/give or can be dropped off at the office this week. Some of our pastoral staff are in self-quarantine because of previous international travel. However, if you or anyone you know needs help or prayer, let us know at mw.church/contact For a more detailed MW statement with Scripture and strategies concerning Covid-19 visit mw.church/coronavirus We’ll see you online at 10:30am (AST). We love you and remember: God’s got this! |

With the evolving COVID-19 situation, as Christians, we have an opportunity to demonstrate faith over fear. That doesn’t mean we ignore the practical measures, it means we combine those measures with faith, information and discernment.
One of those key practical measures to minimize the spread of the virus is to avoid attending large gatherings. For this reason, Moncton Wesleyan has decided to cancel the Easter Bunny Blast which was scheduled for Saturday, April 11th. Easter Bunny Blast has grown in popularity year after year with attendance reaching over 3000. However, the event involves food, crafts, and games that are highly interactive, particularly for children. This makes the flu-prevention strategy of social distancing impossible to practice. Although we are disappointed to cancel Easter Bunny Blast 2020, we believe it is the wise, safe and responsible thing to do. In His Service, Liz Hoyt – Pastor, Children’s Ministries |

A Word on Coronovirus from Moncton Wesleyan“Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.” Philippians 4:6-7 (TM) Everyone is in a stage of heightened awareness as world and community leaders manage the evolving situation with COVID-19. So what are we doing at Moncton Wesleyan? Here is what we are doing as a church staff
We’ve established a staff team that is meeting weekly (or more often as necessary) to review all of our efforts in response to COVID-19.
Here is what you can do to help
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body. . . . Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” Matthew 6:25–27 (NIV) |
