主日崇拜（三月十五日）和兒童，青少年及成人主日學 (待定）
Brothers and sisters in Christ,
As you know, we are facing an unprecedented situation here in Washington state. We have had dozens of confirmed cases of Covid-19 and at least 11 deaths in our surrounding cities. Every day these numbers are increasing. Being that we are a Chinese church, our community is being hit the hardest and it is our responsibility to act in a way that is consistent with the facts and also our faith.
Therefore, we will be canceling this coming Sunday's worship services (3/8) and all associated ministries (Children's, Youth, Adult Sunday schools). This is in accordance with the State's recommendation for at-risk individuals to refrain from gatherings over 10 people in size.
Church leadership will send mid-week updates (Wednesday night) for upcoming Sunday worship services. The situation is fluid and we are trying to be responsive and responsible. We are also making plans for upcoming virtual meetings so that we can still gather together as a body online. Further details forthcoming.
We want to encourage everyone not to fear. Though there is much uncertainty surrounding this sickness, we serve a God who is sovereign. Please continue to pray for those affected, and for the healing that He can provide. If you need prayer, counseling or would like a visitation, feel free to contact us directly.
SKC Leadership,
親愛的主内弟兄姐妹:
如您所知，我們華盛頓州正面臨前所未有的情況。我們有數十例新冠病毒確診，至少十一人死亡。這些數字日日增加，我們是一個華人教會，我們的社區受到了極大的影響，我們有責任根據現實的情況和我們信念來調整我們因應的對策。
因此，我們將暫停本主日崇拜（三月八日）和兒童，青少年及成人主日學。這符合州政府的防疫建議，即高風險羣體不鼓勵參加超過十人以上的聚集。
教會領導將每周三晚上發送通知，是否進行主日崇拜。现今情況還不穩定，我們會儘快地作出回應和决策。我們也在計劃將來主内肢體如何能在網上聚會，細節定後再說。
我們鼓勵大家不要害怕，儘管這疫情有許多不確定性，但我們所事奉的是位擁有主權的神，請繼續為那些受影響的人及病患者得醫治禱告。如果您需要祈禱，輔導或探訪，請直接與我們聯繫。
