RE-OPENING UPDATES:


Update: May 5, 2020

Greetings Freedom Family,

What a joy it was to be back in the house this past weekend with our guest speaker, Jeremiah Johnson.  I trust that if you were unable to be with us in-person, that you were able to join in through one of our online streaming channels.  Jeremiah spoke on the need for discernment and the exposing of deception in the last days--IT WAS POWERFUL!  Here are the links if you would like to view them again: https://livestream.com/accounts/24466353/events/7237786/videos/205489511 and https://livestream.com/accounts/24466353/events/7237786/videos/205550364

Regarding the re-opening of Freedom to in-house corporate services, here are the details:
  • SUNDAY: Our Sanctuary was re-opened to in-house corporate services on May 3, 2020. Freedom family, guests and visitors can now attend in-person on Sunday mornings, or continue viewing online if not yet comfortable joining with us in-person.
  • WEDNESDAY:  For at least the next two weeks, May 6 & May 13, Wednesday services will remain as livestream only. We will reassess mid-month and make a determination at that time as to the re-start date for Wednesday in-person services.
  • FREEDOM KIDS: Children's Ministry will remain closed through the month of May.
 
We will continue to keep our sanctuary seating arranged to allow for social distancing so please be respectful of the precautions that others may still be taking.

As services and activities begin to re-organize and re-start, please watch your email and texts for announcements and updates.  If you have any questions, please call Kris in the church office 321-622-6999.

Blessings upon you,
​
Pastor Tim

Greetings Freedom Family!

I’m extending a personal invitation to you and your family to join me for our services with Jeremiah Johnson, this weekend, May 3rd at 10am and 6:30pm.  In accordance with the guidelines implemented by Governor Ron DeSantis, we have made the decision to reopen the sanctuary to in-person services for our church only.

I believe there are several things the Lord has spoken to me as I’ve considered re-opening.  
  • Ezra 5:5—We are to continue building.
  • Ezra 8:22-23 —God’s hand of protection is on all who worship Him.
  • II Chron. 20:20—Believe in His prophets and you will succeed.
  • Ezra 5:2—The prophets of God were with them and helped them.
Take time today and read through these passages, I found great insight as I read these and my heart is confident that I have heard and received clear direction from God concerning Freedom. 

We are working hard to ensure that our building is a safe environment for reopening:
  1. We have limited the seating capacity in our sanctuary.
  2. Provided spacing for social distancing. 
  3. You are welcome to wear a face covering and/or gloves.
  4. If you choose to attend in-person, please refrain from hugs and handshakes.
  5. Please be respectful of the precautions other may be taking.
  6. Until further notice, children will remain in the sanctuary with their parents.  We are asking all parents to please instruct your child/children on the reasons for good social distancing and how to properly wash their hands if they utilize the restroom. 
  7. We will continue to live stream all of our services.
  8. If you are not yet comfortable returning to an in-person service—we understand.  When you are ready to return, our doors will be wide open for you.

In closing, I would like to make one request of you—Due to the logistics of maximizing the seating capacity, it would be very helpful if everyone would arrive at 9:30am this Sunday. Our Lead Ushers will assist you in finding a seat, so please wait in the lobby or on the porch area until they are ready to seat you.  With your help, and flexibility, we all can make this transition flow smoothly.

I look forward to seeing you on Sunday, whether in person or online!

Blessings upon you,

Pastor Tim
