Brother Buckles

Bro. Buckles

Brother Howard Buckles went to be with our Lord Jesus on his 91st birthday (Friday, September 25th, 2020).

We rejoice for our brother, as he is in a young, healthy body now, but his faithfulness and smiling face will be greatly missed.

Please remember the Buckles family in prayer during this time.

Visitation will be from 4PM-8PM on Tuesday, September 29th at Garr Funeral Home.

Garr Funeral Home Address:
7806 County Rd 311, Sellersburg, IN 47172

Funeral will be Wednesday, September 30th at 1PM, but (per the family’s request) will be invitation only. We will live stream the service, for those who are unable to attend.

And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. ” ~ Revelation 14:13

“…beyond this shadow here, yonder lays the body not made with hands. Yonder lays the immortal one, waiting; and that, someday, when the life is pulled from this body, it’ll awake anew in His Presence yonder, to be with Him through the ages of time.” ~ Rev. William Marrion Branham (54-1003M)

Tithes & Offerings

We have been receiving questions about how you can pay tithes, since we are currently unable to have services with everyone physically at church.

You can mail checks to Church Of The Open Door (or use your bank’s online bill pay option) to the following PO box, or use the recently added “Donate” button (in the top menu of the church website) to donate via PayPal account or debit card. The donate link has a dropdown option, which allows you to select how your donation should be designated (‘Tithes’, ‘Offerings’, ‘Missions‘, or ‘Building Fund’).

Service Guidelines:
* We are recommending anyone 65+ to stream the services.
* If anyone has a fever, cold or flu symptoms: please stay home.
* We will be seating people on every other row, to respect social distancing during this time.
* Household units / family members will need to sit together.
* There needs to be reasonable spacing between non-family members.

* We will be blocking off the water fountain during this time.
* Limit two people in the downstairs restrooms at a time and one in the upstairs restroom (for social distancing purposes).
* Please park every other parking place if possible.
* The deacons will have something available in the entryway for any tithes and offerings as you exit (instead of passing the baskets).
* Deacons will dismiss you by row at the end of service. Please go on outside (unless you are remaining in the sanctuary to pray), instead of congregating in the entryway.
* Please go to your vehicles once you are dismissed and respect social distancing as much as possible. We do not want our good to be evil spoken of (Romans 14:16).
* Please follow these instructions and be patient with our deacons during this time, as I have asked them to enforce these rules.

Thank you and God bless you during this time and always, ~ Bro. Nathan Bryant
