Worship August 9, 2020

Our online August 9, 2020 worship asks us to consider:
"Then Jesus finally got to go up on a mountain to be by himself and pray and rest and process" the sad news.
Oh, then what he did next!
What do we learn in this story about how to be like Jesus? Click below to worship. (Be sure to read the announcements in the comments below.)
Announcements:

Gathering in the church building for worship, Scouts, and R.O.A.R. dinners have been discontinued until the CDC recommends gatherings resume.
The Neighbors in Need Crisis Organization and Food Pantry continues to be open every Tuesday between 1 and 3 outside the lower level of Marshall BBC Presbyterian Church, 165 South Main Street in downtown Marshall, directly across from the Marshall Town Hall.
Please, one person representing a household in line. You must wear a face covering and stand six feet from interviewers and pantry volunteers.
Unfortunately, at this time Neighbors in Need and Marshall Presbyterian Church CANNOT take donations of clothing, furniture, or other household items. Thanks for understanding.

Join Presbyterian Home for Children August 20 for a Facebook Live event to meet key staff and volunteers, learn about the ministry, and join in an online auction with items like handcrafted furniture, travel, art, and a chance to drive a real Indy car! 

A message from Elizabeth Gullum to the community:
Dear Friends and Family across the country, Madison County schools is preparing for the first weeks of school to be remote learning. We have had a 50% increase in cases here and also an infant and a school age child affected, and so our District has made the tough call to begin distance learning. While those of you who live in urban areas, may not be able to relate, we are a large, rural, remote community with limited WiFi access and a large number of our school families do not have devices (chrome books or iPads) for their children to utilize during the school year. If you have a device that you aren’t using, please consider donating it to our schools. I will cover the cost of your shipping. We are a beautiful county, with hard working families, and we need help! Our Fifth Graders placed first in the state in Reading, Math and Science last year! A remarkable accomplishment given the challenges our teachers face. Please if you are able, send us your old devices, it could change a child’s life. Thank you.
