CHURCH AND PANDEMIC
We all have had to discover ways to navigate through the event of COVID-19. Wailuku Union Church is prayerfully finding ways to be the church, to be healthy and creative in ministering in these contagious times.
COMMUNICATION We will use mail; 327 S. High St. Wailuku, Maui, HI 96793, Email; wuc@hawaiiantel.net, Web page; wailukuunionchurch.weebly.com, Facebook; www.facebook.com/WailukuUnionChurch, Phone; (808) 244-9177 Prayer Tree; via church office and Text messages to keep in contact with each other. WORSHIP SERVICE with no Attendees Our 9:00 a.m. Sunday service can be found on Facebook; www.facebook.com/WailukuUnionChurch, We are practicing our best flu prevention habits to keep healthy. The service will be abbreviated I am hoping for worship like a table read of a script, or TV Talk Show. Damira will play a few pieces for our live feed. COMMUNION We discussed a few options for sacredness and sanitation. With separate portion cups for both the bread and the juice, the Deacons would serve people one serving at a time. One thought would be to watch the live feed from our cars in the parking lot and then the deacons would come out and serve you through your car windows. Others could ‘drive through' for communion using our turn around drive way. PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE Prayer Request can be made on our web page by clicking on 'Contact Us' or through email wuc@hawaiiantel.net We will alert the Prayer Tree of your prayer request. OFFERING Our Web page; wailukuunionchurch.weebly.com, has “PayPal” capability. You have to register with them to do this, but this could become our weekly habit as we hunker down for these next few Sundays. You can also mail your offerings in or drop them off at the office. FOOD PANTRY With the economy being so deeply affected by COVID-19, the Food Pantry will continue to be in operation on Saturdays, 8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. They will change their normal procedures to insure the necessary safety precautions are taken.

FUTURE EVENTS These are our best guess of how to access these future events: Sunday Services: Facebook Easter Fun Day: Canceled Maundy Thursday: Facebook Easter Sun Rise: Facebook Easter Service: Facebook PRAYER Dear God, who hold us when afraid, Bring sanity to our worry, Lead our anxiety to wise decisions of calm. We pray for Nurses, Doctors, Health Care Professionals, Firemen, Law Enforcement Officer and our Government. Guide them, Keep them safe and protect them, For those who are sick, Bring your healing. Be nearby and hear their cries. Sooth their fever, ease their breathing, calm our restless souls. You know how we are made, And remind us that we are yours. Ever present God, Our confidence is in you, To endure our fears, To find comfort in suffering, And life through your love. Amen. Join the WUC Choir...
