Dear CCCM Scouting families,

You may have been following along with all the news lately regarding COVID-19 (also called the novel Coronavirus). Between yesterday and today a lot of guidance has been coming out from official sources from both government and scouting.

Calvary Chapel’s administrative team has also been meeting since yesterday morning to formulate a plan of action for the church and its ministries.

First, I would like to point out that our first priority is that of the health and safety of our scouting family. We do not want to take unnecessary risks.

Therefore, Calvary Chapel has instructed us to suspend all on campus meetings effective immediately. I know this will be a bit disruptive for you and your family, but out of abundance of caution we are making this decision.

At this moment, we have been instructed to suspend our meetings through the end of March. If this date changes, we will let you know.

We will also have the information on the scouting.cccm.com website.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Tim. 1:7.

Please keep each other in prayer, and those who are affected by this illness. Please remember to practice good hygiene and hand washing in order to stay healthy.

If you have any questions, please contact your Scouting program’s leadership, and you are welcome to contact me if you have questions as well. My email is marcosorourke@scouting.cccm.com and my phone number is 714-478-3099.
