Session 3 – Hello Grace Family!

Just some things to think about as we journey down this COVID 19 road together.
Saints, you can make your own masks if you choose. By the way, covering your hair is a plus, but beware, you may not look the same! (See Sis. Leatha’s video – click on News above). Men or women could call Sis. Peggy if you need to order one, whatever you do, do not leave home without it. Please!
When you go out and return, put all clothes and masks in wash or hand wash. Sis. Leatha’s mask is free if you have a tee shirt. Remember to wash all exposed body parts when you get home.

If there is anyone in need of food or supplies, please call the church, or contact us at administration@gcoan.org. We need your phone contact and address. There are many resources available in our community.

If you are absolutely in need of someone to pick up meds please email or call as well with phone contact. Just about everyone has delivery services or find someone who does.
Need prayer? Call the church. Leave a message if no immediate answer. If you need to speak with someone, confidentially about a mental health issue: excess worry, fear, extreme loneliness, any extreme unusual feelings, homelessness, excessive worry about bills, health, food, safety, grief or loss, overwhelming feelings or confusion, lack of sleep.

PLEASE CALL THE CHURCH NUMBER: 617-238-7057

Some church professionals have gotten together to help with these services. I encourage you to call others to see if a neighbor is going to the store to ask to pick something up for you and reciprocate when you go out. Try not to go out more than once a week, and please wear a mask. Practice social distancing, (six feet away), wear gloves, wash hands or use hand sanitizer often. Protect yourself or your family whenever you go out, wash all clothing. Leave your shoes at the door. Spray them with disinfectant. Spray your coat if you cannot wash it.

Most of all, stay inside!!! Find an electronic game to play with family or friends or make one. Pictionary you can make, find one online. Take turns! Listen to music together. Yes, YouTube, Pandora. Find shows and specials on TV. Give each family member a turn at choosing a movie of the day. Choose and prepare meals together. Get fresh air daily. Even if you get in the car and drive for 20 mins. With the windows down. Exercise or dance for 1/2 hour daily, alone or with family, or on Facebook live. Some of us have a town curfew. Please observe it. Most of all, keep reaching out electronically. If you do not have a positive prayerful person to call, dial the church number. Use wisdom and seek God in all circumstances. Please be well. Pray, pray, pray, praise God!
