Connecting during social distancing: Resources for Lent and navigating COVID-19
news & updates
Friends,
As many of us practice social distancing and gatherings are canceled, we at the Presbyterian Outlook are seeking to provide resources for our Lenten journey and ways to stay connected to each other during this challenging season.
To that end, we will share a weekly devotional, about 10 minutes long, that you can view at your convenience. We are using "Lent In Plain Sight" as our guide, but having the book is not necessary! We also invite you to use our weekly lectionary reflections, "Looking into the lectionary" for weekly worship, Bible study or devotions. We will be posting information and resources frequently for as long as we are homebound. Please check our website or follow us on social media for the most up-to-date materials. You can find all of the Outlook's COVID-19 stories with this link.
We are grateful for your witness and ministry and we are praying for you. If there are resources you need but cannot find, let us know and we will do our best to locate or create them!
A reflection on leadership by Jill Duffield: As our country faces the trial of this pandemic, disciples of Jesus Christ are called to be servant leaders, looking to the interests of others, caring for the least of these, and advocating for the vulnerable.
A reflection on leadership by Matthew Skolnik, general presbyter of Muskingum Valley Presbytery: The church always needs stronger and healthier leaders. Who knows? Maybe what you learn through the coronavirus outbreak will have a profound impact on your overall trajectory of leadership.
