Keeping You Safe On Campus
How we’re keeping our church family safe at each of our campus locations.
As we return to in-person worship throughout the week across both the Main Campus and our Dover Campus we have implemented a number of procedures to keep everyone safe while gathered. Some of these procedures include:
Sanitizing spaces between services. This includes the restrooms, sanctuary and common areas
Face Masks are REQUIRED for all attenders including staff and volunteers
Entrance and Exits are clearly marked and defined within our sanctuary
Our Usher Team will be seating those who attend in-person and also dismissing attenders at the end of service to meet social distancing guidelines
No congregational singing. We know this is hard but encourage those who attend to clap and raise their hands as they feel led.
Campus has gone paperless - we are now offering our Digital Connect Card for those joining us online and in person
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Support New Hope Early Learning
We need your help! August Mission Emphasis supports New Hope Early Learning.
New Hope Early Learning is preparing to open their doors for the 2020/2021 school year this August. Like most of the preschools in our area, New Hope Early Learning is in a season of lower than normal registration which in turn means less funds available for necessary supplies for our teachers and students. New guidelines prohibiting students to share items like pencils, markers and scissors has also increased the need for additional on-hand supplies.
We have a number of ways in which you can help support NHEL during this season of ministry
Amazon Wish List – Shop online at Amazon and have items delivered directly to New Hope. Visit our NHEL Shopping List HERE.
Pick-Up Supplies While Shopping – Donation of supplies can be dropped off at the church office during normal business hours.
Monetary Donation – Donations can be made ONLINE or by dropping off a check at the church office. Please list NHEL on the memo line of any checks.
Thank you for your support – New Hope Early Learning has been serving the Brandon community for over 50 years and we look forward to many more!

May 20, 2020 Passion Student Ministry Vlog Update
VLOG Update for May 20, 2020 from Chris Temple
Look for a daily 5 minute devotional/check-in on my youtube channel. This will be a link that I will text out as well as email out to students and parents. Also, it will be found on the Facebook PSM page.
What can you do as a PSM parent? Take the incentive that these daily videos and the Sunday message video will be available. Let it create questions and discussions. This is a time of anxiousness, isolation and concern (and not just for parents). We are in the thick of realization that all will be effected. In some way or another.
What can you do as a student? Keep tuned into the devotional and message videos. Also, keep checking in with your small group. Take the time (cuz ya' know ya' got some!) to say "hello" or "what's up?" Also, keep talking. If you are transparent about the current days and often hours that seem offsetting to the norm, it really does help. Everyone (including parents) will be going through it. I promise you will not be the only one feeling this way.
Know that this ministry will not stop. PSM's plan is to keep active the best possible way we can with what we have until we can do more. As the Director of Student Ministries, it is a priority to care for and keep together our youth in this time of crisis. I have great optimism that we will get through this season. God is with us!
Remember, the Church is looking at a week to week basis as far as what we can do. Let's pray that each week will be more encouraging than the last. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with me.
Please be smart, be safe and be of God.
In Faith,
Chris
