Connecting during social distancing: This week's resources for worship, study and navigating COVID-19

Presbyterian Outlook
COVID-19 news & resources
Friends,

This week as severe weather hits many states, we pray God's peace and protection upon you. For those with insufficient heat, water, shelter or sustenance — Lord in your mercy, hear our prayers.

As we begin this Lenten journey, may Christ walk with you through the dark and remind you of your belovedness.

Remember: Check our website or follow us on social media to get materials as soon as they are released. You'll find weekly "Looking into the lectionary" reflections, all of the Outlook's COVID-19 news and stories, and our new worship resources here.

And, there is still time to share the Outlook's Lenten devotions with the congregation so you can pray Scripture together this season.

Grace and peace,
Jana Blazek
Outlook associate editor

Dear God, we give thanks for the exhausted healthcare workers and for chaplains, who work miracles of healing and compassion, who hold the hands of those who are dying, whispering that they are not alone, they are not alone.
