We will not be having church service at Essential on Sunday. While the storm may have passed by us by Sunday morning, I think this is a morning where it would be far better to be out in the community serving rather than inside worshiping.
After the storm is over make plans to put on your essential t-shirt if you have one, take some work gloves and go Be Essential! There will be debris to clean up and trees to cut up. This is a great time to meet your neighbors and grow closer as a community.
If you see a house that has a major need, let us know. Use whatever communication mediums that are available to you after the storm. We will direct people from Essential Church to that location, or if necessary we can call in our disaster relief agency partners that are standing by to offer assistance.
You can call or text service needs to 757-472-4673 or send an email to info@essentialchurch.tv and PastorSteve@essentialchurch.tv.
Also, if you want to be on the first responder list to help, email your cell phone number to info@essentialchurch.tv. If cell phones are working after the storm, we will be sending out service opportunities via text as well as to the church’s email list.
Live for the Blessing,
Pastor Steve



Don’t have much in the way of tools or equipment but can pick up debris. Will also help with children, yours or others so more people can help. If multiple families need childcare, we could have a drop off at church…. just a thought. Glad we are doing this, as it should be!
