  The fire marshal gave us permission to worship in the sanctuary beginning this Sunday, January 15 at 11:00 AM.  While the carpet is dry and vacuumed, there is still much work to be done before the sanctuary damage is completely repaired.  We will rope off the far-left side of the sanctuary where most of the damage occurred and ask that you find a place to sit elsewhere for the time being.
 
Thank you to our wonderful McGregor volunteers, especially the Worship and Property Committees, for moving furniture, setting up and taking down all the worship elements, hymnals, Bibles, and chairs in order to worship in Glenn Hall for the past two weeks.
 
And thank YOU for being flexible as we make our way forward answering God’s call in 2023.
 
  Don’t forget that we are now livestreaming our Sunday worship services on our YouTube McGregor channel.  Go to YouTube.com, search McGregor Presbyterian, and then click subscribe or use the link provided.  See you Sunday!
