First Sunday Back-Questions to Ponder WORSHIP

The answers to the following, and other, questions need to be determined now. Don’t wait until the day has dawned and try and throw something together.

The way that these questions are answered will be different for each church.

What will happen on that first Sunday back?

Will there be baptisms?

Will there be Holy Communion?

Will there be a time of witnessing?

Will there be special music?

Will the pastor have a special message?

Will there be celebration?

Will there be a pot luck meal?

Will Sunday School also start back up at the same time?

A big issue will revolve around state limits on meeting size. As the roll out begins, you might be facing limits of 10, 25, or 50 people allowed to gather. How will your church cope with the fact that you might have 40 that want to come, but only 10 would be allowed? Think through this issue before it happens and have a plan in place.

Take a moment, to write down some questions that come to your mind as you think about this topic.
