HEALTH MINISTRYMay Wellness Tip
With the global pandemic caused by the COVID 19 virus, our world and daily norms have quickly changed. Many of us are experiencing symptoms of excessive stress: irritability, difficulty sleeping, frequent headaches, heartburn, muscle tension, and high blood pressure. Over time increased levels of stress can have a negative impact on our health, including our immune system. People under chronic stress are much more susceptible to viral illnesses like the flu, the common cold, and yes, the COVID virus. It may also take longer to get over these illnesses. What are a few coping techniques to decrease stress and anxiety?
It is important now, more than ever to invest in yourself to manage stress and anxiety. The health ministry is available to answer question concerning COVID19. Take care and stay safe. Blessings to you all. WEEKLY SERVICESJoin us ONLINE for our services during this time of physical distancing.
YOU'RE INVITED TO COFFEE AND CONVERSATIONJoin with the St. Augustine Community at one of two virtual 'get-togethers' each Sunday. Each Coffee and Conversation will be offered via Zoom and will take place at 10am (prior to the 10:45am service), or 11:30am, (following the service). The casual socal meetings will last under 40 minutes, and offer a chance to say hello to friends, get to know each other better, and stay connected during this time of physical distancing. To participate, email memberengagement@sac-okc.org for the link and password. You must be able to access Zoom from your home computer or Zoom app on your tablet or phone. We can't wait to see you this Sunday! ZOOM BIBLE STUDYOn Wednesday, May 6th at 11:00 a.m. we will reconvene our Wednesday Adult bible study through the means of Zoom. During the four Wednesdays in May, we will take a critical look at the book of Malachi. This minor prophet is the last book listed in the canonical ordering of the Old Testament, and it is assumed that its name derives from the Hebrew word “my messenger.” A separate link connecting you to Zoom will be sent out next Wednesday. If you need help downloading a Zoom app or getting connected on your phone or computer, please contact Ryan Garrett at: 405-751-7874 during office hours, or by email saintaugustineokc@gmail.com. OUTREACH OPPORTUNITY As we all struggle in some way with our new "COVID reality," we find that many have a new struggle: to put food on the table. According to officials at the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma, those already facing hunger have been hit especially hard, but they're also seeing more first-time pantry visitors than ever. With the Food Bank's own ability to raise funds and make use of volunteers severely hampered, they are experiencing a 25% increase in average monthly distributions. The Easter season - a time of new life, rebirth, and renewal - is an ideal time for us to work together to support the efforts of the Food Bank as they meet the needs of hungry men, women and children - our neighbors. In order to do this they have asked for monetary donations and The Vestry has agreed to match personal contributions dollar-for-dollar, with a goal of collecting $5,000 to be matched by $5,000 from the church budget - a total $10,000 contribution by Sunday, May 31st. You can help relieve hunger in Oklahoma by making a tax-deductible contribution. Send your check to St. Augustine (14700 N. May Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73134; Memo line: Food Bank) or by logging onto the Tithe.ly app and contributing by credit card. (Further directions for logging onto Tithe.ly can be found HERE.)
