UCG Had To Cancel Sabbath Services After Returning Attendees From 3 Different Feast Sites Tested Positve To Covid

 

From a reader:

UCG reported positive cases in St. George, Daytona and Big Sandy. They cancelled services this last Sabbath. I personally know of 2 that fell ill when they got home and are now hospitalized. 

The only thing about COVID-19 in their Feast brochure that listed sites was this:

 

The Pirating Churches of God: Growing a Church of God and the Ministry in the Age of "Who Cares?"

LCG Wants Members To Set Goals This Year

It always seems like the Living Church of God members are the ones getting talked down to with these weekly messages. It is always LCG members who need to be doing something in order to impress God. There never seems to be any accountability on what the leadership of the church should be doing

Will we see Gerald Weston and the ministry setting goals on how to be better leaders in the church who minister graciously and love unconditionally? Will they become followers of Jesus or still be pillars of the law? What changes to the ministers and leaders need to make to improve their relationship with God and membership? What will they do to improve their spiritual health? 

Let the leadership of the LCG set the example and set goals as an example for the brethren. Be the example, for once.

Goals for the Coming Year: Solomon advised in the book of Proverbs, “Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established. Do not turn to the right or the left; remove your foot from evil” (Proverbs 4:26–27). As we return from the Feast, inspired by the sermons and fellowship, it is a good time to think about setting goals for the coming year. What changes would you like to make, or do you need to make, to improve your relationship with God or your family or other individuals? What can you do to improve your physical or spiritual health? What can you do to serve God and others more effectively? How can you prepare now for the Kingdom of God? The Apostle Paul urged Christians to “walk circumspectly [carefully, diligently]” and make the most of the time at your disposal (Ephesians 5:15–16). The Apostle Peter exhorted his audience to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). What books can you read, what classes can you take, what topics can you study in the Bible, and what experiences can you arrange that will help you and your family grow and prepare for the Kingdom of God? Set some worthwhile goals for the coming year so that you can grow to be a truly profitable servant of God.

Have a profitable Sabbath,
