Before Covid we were going 1,000 miles an hour in a hundred different
directions from "pillar to post." Covid slowed things down. Now we have been
forced to say no, and it is time to carefully say "yes." I hope that you will use
your faith to guide you and that you will look for ways to serve the Lord
especially at LMPC. Jesus said that the fields were white for harvest- therefore
pray for laborers for the field. Ironically, he didn't say to pray the fields would
magically come in. People are coming back- at almost the same levels as pre-
covid in our church, but the volunteers are not. We need, for example, ushers,
pew pals (who clean up the pews after Sunday worship), nursery workers,
youth advisors and more to make things go. If you'd like to volunteer, please
call the church office (803) 345-5140 or email [email protected].
Thanks for answering God's call. May God bless you for doing so.
Memorials- We have not talked about memorials for awhile. It is a time honored tradition to
give in memory of someone who died to the house of God. When you give a
memorial to LMPC a thank you is written to you and also the closest family
member is notified of your memorial (though not your amount). Often these
gifts go to help meet church projects. For example, one year they helped pay
for tables and chairs. Another time they helped pay for sound equipment so we
can hear better. Thanks to those who want to honor others as a part of your
worship and giving.
WORSHIP AT LMPC We will have 8:30 AM Worship at the Lake (925 Sugar Mill Rd Chapin). It is in
person and livestreamed on FaceBook, YouTube, and the website. It is also
broadcast on 87.9 low frequency FM. Some stay in their cars and some get out with
their own chairs or blankets to listen. We will continue this until the end of June
when we will move the 8:30 service back to the sanctuary.
Our 10:30 worship is in the sanctuary. The CDC recently said for those
vaccinated, social distancing and masks are unnecessary. We will follow their
guidelines. In grace, we will not mask shame one way or the other. But all are
welcome here.

This summer we are beginning Summer Sunday School 9:30 on "Spirituality
and Technology." In person meeting will be in the Fellowship Hall we will put
out zoom credentials next week (we will also try Facebook Live). Participants
will be invited to use a YouVersion Bible app- or read a book "The Ruthless
Elimination of Hurry." Many have had to up their ante on technology during the
For example, when waiting in line, 75% say they will immediately
look at their phones. But how does that help or hurt our faith?
Being aware of the strengths and weaknesses of technology helps us
to use it in moderation and discipline for the glory of God. Come join us.
