MCA Church Novel Corona Virus Mitigation Plan

May 13, 2020 / By

The MCA Church Corona Virus Mitigation Plan reflects the following Bible instructions:

3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.  Philippians 2:3, 4

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. Romans 13:1
