Churches May Get Relief from Stimulus Legislation
The following is from Church of God General Overseer Tim Hill:
Dedicated to Sustain, Devoted to Strengthen, Determined to Secure – The Right Combination
I have been asked, “What will the Church of God International Offices do to stand with and assist the local church and its pastor as we move through the Covid-19 crisis?” Specifically, I have been asked if it is possible to temporarily discontinue the tithe of tithes paid by local churches, as directed by the General Assembly, to the State/Region and International Offices. These are very appropriate and understandable questions. People are concerned, apprehensive, and right now, many are simply afraid. Again, this is completely understandable.
The Church Has Left the Building
CLEVELAND, TN: After this past Sunday, there is no doubt that the church has left the building. While some churches had canceled services the previous week, on March 22 most Church of God buildings across the country were dark, with the exception of the pastor preaching to empty pews, and to an iPhone or video camera. Although not voluntarily, there was no doubt that the church had left the building.
Thousands Tune In to ‘Hope for Tomorrow’
Cleveland, TN—-On a day when Church of God congregations took to fully on-line Sunday morning church amid worldwide regulations to combat the coronavirus, the International Offices provided a Sunday evening livestream entitled “Hope for Tomorrow” broadcast on Facebook Live (COGHQ).
Special Livestream Service Set for Sunday
In a call for connectivity and unity during the Covid-19 pandemic, Church of God General Overseer Tim Hill has called a special livestream service, which will take place from the International Offices this Sunday at 6:00 p.m. EST.
