We encourage you to regularly visit our Facebook "Group" Page at

While we are in a period of "physical distancing," we want to keep our "socializing" alive and well so all worship services are shared via LIVE-STREAM on the Facebook Group page each Sunday.
The recorded worship services, when made available, are also shared here on the website at https://fccsilverton.com/online-worship-services as a YouTube post and can be accessed with a simple click anytime you'd like to "visit."
Children's Church (Sunday School) videos are posted on the Children's Ministry Page: https://fccsilverton.com/childrens-ministry
Because we celebrate Open Communion each Sunday, if you are worshiping with us online, we invite you to have whatever elements you chose to partake of with us at hand for Communion.
Peace - Shalom

JUNE 30, 2020 UPDATE

Dear Church Family:
Now that Marion County is in Phase 2, we can have more people attend in-person worship services, therefore, beginning this Sunday, July 5th, we will return to one service at 10:00 a.m. We will continue to follow the executive orders set out by Governor Brown for strict social distancing and sanitizing protocols, including face coverings, which are now required in public spaces for anyone 12 years and older.
In order to maintain the required social distancing and contact tracing rules, anyone wishing to attend worship service MUST:
1. Contact the church by email or phone by 10:00 a.m. Thursday to sign up to attend that Sunday’s service. You will be added to the list and assigned a seat number. 2. You must provide the names of everyone in your group who will be attending.
We will continue to live-stream our church services if you are not able or prefer not to attend in person,
The sanctuary will accommodate up to 70 people, depending on family sizes, and any overflow will be seated in the multi-purpose room. But, as you all are aware, everything is subject to change and we will continue to keep you informed by email and on our Facebook page at “Silverton FCC Church Family.”
___________________
March 17, 2020 - Due to Governor Kate Brown's Executive Order announcing statewide actions to help slow the spread of COVID-19, Silverton First Christian Church will not gather for worship until further notice. We treasure our times together as a church family and this is a loss, but hopefully this will not last very long.
In the meantime, the good news is that each Sunday we will provide a service with music, scripture, prayers and a message through a live YouTube link accessible through the church e-mail, our Facebook Group page, and our website. It will be viewable at any time.
We hope this blesses your life each week as we continue to journey with Jesus to the cross during this season of Lent. Please let us know if you are in need or are aware of others in our church family who are in need.
Annual Congregational Meeting
The annual congregational meeting, for the purpose of electing new officers and voting on the budget, will be held, following worship, Sunday, July 19th.
Please plan on attending this very important meeting in the life of our Church.
Questions may be directed to the Board through the Church Office at 503-873-6620
