Invite – Panther Creek Church of the Brethren Outside Church

Panther Creek Church of the Brethren Parking Lot Church

Covid-19 has presented churches with a new set of challenges in 2020.

Gathering as we have in the past presents a physical health risk to our members, yet not gathering presents spiritual, emotional, and social health risks.

Panther Creek Church of the Brethren is located in a beautiful country setting so the idea of a Parking Lot Church came into being. Participants drive down the church lane and are greeted by a member of the church.

Vehicles can then back in under large shade trees facing the front of the building. An FM transmitter allows the service to be broadcast to an FM station in each car radio so all can remain in their cars and stay socially distant.

Worship services intend to come as close as possible to “normal” with prelude music, joys and concerns, prayer, scripture and sermon. It has been a great experience to share in worship and to see each other again even if from a distance.

An offering can be left in a box as cars turn down the driveway to leave the church. Most of the time the weather has cooperated to provide a unique and worshipful experience for those in attendance.

Panther Creek Church of the Brethren would like to issue an open invitation to visit and participate in a nature filled worship service at 10:30 on Sunday mornings.

The Panther Creek Church of the Brethren is located at 24529 J Avenue,
½ mile south of the intersection of P-58, Hwy. 44 and J Avenue (8 miles northwest of Adel,
8 miles west of Dallas Center, 10 miles south of Perry, 11 miles northeast of Redfield).
