Covid-19 Update:
The First Presbyterian Church of Forest Hills NY will NOT be open for in-person worship this Sunday. We will worship online only, due to concerns over the wave of COVID infections now affecting NYC. The Session has voted unanimously to do this out of concern for everyone's health. We hope to reopen in another week or so, depending on the status of the pandemic. (please see below for details)
We will continue to keep you updated and will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

I realize that this will cause some sadness for many of you, and some may feel this measure is perhaps unnecessary, but our church polity places responsibility for such decisions in the hands of the Session, your elected representative leaders. (For the record, I support them fully.) It is out of concern for your safety that they have made this decision.
I look forward to seeing you online this Sunday at 11:00 AM as we worship our Lord!
This is the 2nd Sunday after Epiphany, and also a celebration of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday (bulletin link here).
May your New Year be full of joy and blessings! 2021 has been a busy and eventful year - let us hope and pray that 2022 brings us a year of God's grace, an end to the pandemic, an end to war, hunger and violence, and more of Christ's reign on earth. This is our mission, and for this reason we gather and worship.
Grace and peace in Christ to all of you -
Jeff
