Reminder: Wayside Gospel Chapel services cancelled until further notice

Reminder: Wayside Gospel Chapel services have been cancelled until further notice. We are taking this one week at a time believing that the path of prudence is to follow the guidelines put out by the Governor and the President. This is especially the case where those who are more vulnerable to the disease caused by the virus are concerned: the children, and elderly in health categories like some of our members.

Here is what Pastor Bill Schneider posted on Faith Baptist Fellowship Church’s Facebook page (17 MAR 2020):

“Due to State and Federal endeavors to try and help control the corona virus, FBFC will not meet this Lords Day, March 22, 2020 for public worship. We will be live streaming a sermon and encourage all to tune in via internet. Also Small Groups and Edifying Women are cancelled this week. For now we will take it one week at a time. Please check the Church’s Facebook page and website for future cancelations, if necessary. We will also keep communicating through the prayer chain. Please share this information with those you know who may not have access to the prayer chain and/or social media. Continue to pray !!!”

Until things return to normal Wayside Gospel Chapel has 7 years of audio files of 320 previous sermons that you can listen to during these days. They are uploaded to Internet Archive at https://archive.org/search.php?query=uploader%3A%22spectertm2%40aol.com%22&sort=-publicdate [accessed 20 MAR 2020]. I do not have the means to record video or audio at home. 

Also, Faith Baptist Fellowship Church will have the live feed of the sermon there as mentioned above. Videos of previous sermons at FBFC are also found on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC549l7ytlW3MSUWIZtzPmCg/videos  [accessed 20 MAR 2020]. This is linked on their web site at http://fbf.church/ [accessed 20 MAR 2020]. See “Past Sermons.”
