Bluffton Area Ministerial Association is moving ahead with a Frontline Worker Outreach Project this winter, according to Rev. Karol Farris Schilling, pastor of Bluffton Presbyterian Church.
“Due to the stress and chaos resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, BAMA recognizes that many of our local frontline workers have felt overwhelmed and underappreciated,” she said, speaking for BAMA.
Bluffton Area Ministerial Association, BAMA, continues its Week of Prayer and Christian Unity programming on Sunday, 25.
In recent years, the BAMA pastors marked the week with an annual pulpit exchange.
“In the exchange, congregations welcome a pastor from another local church to lead worship, demonstrating the importance of strong ecumenical relationships within the body of Christ, the universal Church,” said Rev. Karol Farris Schilling, pastor of Bluffton Presbyterian Church.
