From the Big Blue Chair

The New Normal

We are certainly living in extraordinary times when we are being challenged in all areas of our lives.  But in the midst of uncertainty and anxiety I keep hearing stories of creativity, care, compassion and courage!

It is important in these days to maintain some sort of schedule and structure to our days, particularly the school/work week.  I am finding this very true for myself too and am trying to get back to my schedule of which church I work for on which days.  

Last week, despite some technical challenges, the story time went really well.  I was asked to do it twice a week, so, as Tuesday and Friday are my Agincourt days, I will do stories on both days. Skype proved a little problematic so we will move to ZOOM. 

We will start on Friday as today is short notice. On Friday at 4 pm click on this link and you will join the meeting.  If you don't have the ZOOM app yet, you will be instructed to get it and join in.   https://us04web.zoom.us/j/946195695

Meeting ID: 946 195 695

Each week I will post the story time ZOOM link in this blog.

Our Youth Skype visits on Friday nights have continued and this Friday at 7pm we will be having a Netflix Party and watching Jumanji together.  To participate in the Netflix Party you need a computer and Google Chrome. Go to https://www.netflixparty.com/ and download the Netflix party. When you do so you will find a NP beside your address bar. At 6:55 pm on Friday, April 3 I will send all of you and email with a URL link that you will need to click on to join our viewing party. The Netflix Party can only be viewed on a computer and through Google Chrome. 

The Big Blue Chair is where I am doing much of my work these days and where I sit when I read the stories.

If you have any difficulties with the technology, or any other concerns, please get in touch - I do love hearing from you and how you are coping these days!

Peace & Joy,

Pastor Elaine
