Come join us this Sunday, November 22, 2020 at 10:45 to hear Dr. Phil deliver his message, " I have finished my race". This will be an emotional but joyful time for Dr. Phil and the congregation as we know he has been called to a new place and position as God's servant.

We will have hand sanitizer available, will wash hands, and social distance the best we can. Our goal is to share Jesus with these little ones and to keep everyone healthy. For the safety of everyone, leaders will wear a mask while in the lobby and hallways and in close proximity to the children.

Please keep in mind to social distance in the foyer while checking your child in. To help social distance, please enter through the doors on the right side (facing the building) and exit through the left side doors (facing the building, doors with the ramp). We will have signs to guide you

What's Happening

With the resignation of Dr. Phil Pilgrim as Senior Pastor of Unity Baptist Church the Personnel committee asked select personnel from other areas of the church to assist them in forming two search teams. One search team will be responsible for finding an Interim Pastor and the other search team will be responsible for searching and finding a permanent Senior Pastor. The Personnel team has also asked Donny Smith to be our Pulpit Supply Preacher until an Interim can be found. Donny has filled in for Dr. Phil on numerous occasions and has done an outstanding job each time he has been called to step up to the pulpit. He has been a member at Unity for many years and has filled numerous roles here at Unity Baptist Church. Donny will start his tenure as our Pulpit Supply Preacher on Sunday, November 29, 2020. Donny has been filling in as the Youth Minister and will continue to handle that position as well as stepping into the Pulpit as our Supply Preacher. Please make sure you all give Donny a warm welcome in this role and support him through encouragement and prayer.

I think most of us thought we would be on the downhill side of the Corinavirus by this time; however, it is still running strong! This means we will have to continue following the directives from the CDC and the governor's office, Which means we will not be starting Sunday School back as we desired, and at this time we are not sure when we will be starting back. But it will be as soon as possible.

Also, this means that the Children's Ministry area is very limited as to what it can do in a person-to-person environment. A survey has been sent to Children Ministry workers and to the families of our children to assess their feelings and address their concerns. It is possible, we will be starting Children's Church on Sunday mornings in the near future as our first step. Please pray for Wendy as she is doing all she can to minister to our children with video ministry and lessons that can be found here on our website.

Finally, we will have to continue practicing Social Distancing and following other guidelines to help keep everyone healthy inasmuch as possible. In order to do this, we are instituting the following step to keep the flow of traffic moving from the sanctuary to the outside of the building. Dr. Phil and Sandi will be standing outside the front doors under the portico to greet and meet folks. We encourage everyone to move from the Worship Center to the portico as quickly as feasible once the service has ended. This will help maintain the social distancing directive given from the Governor’s office and the CDC. Once outside we can huddle up and talk all we want to.

Also, we are suggesting everyone wear a mask when coming in and out of the Worship Center. Once you are seated you may remove your mask. However, this is voluntary, and it is left up to each individual to decide whether to wear a mask or not. As for the staff, we have been directed to set a good example by wearing a mask in and out of the building. We do hope you understand.

I want to personally thank you on behalf of all church leadership in observing such guidelines. Please keep everyone in your prayers, especially church leaders. All the above was approved unanimously by the Deacons, Church Council, and Staff. God bless and I hope to see you Sunday.
