This website has been established to help us stay connected during this time.
As circumstances lead us to greater physical distance, we choose to lead to greater emotional connection. We believe that that having the love and support of one another and the nearness of our God is what lowers anxiety and makes tough situations easier to navigate. We're in this together.
WHAT'S ON THIS SITE:
Gather here to join our worship with video each Wednesday, Sunday, and for other occasions.
A place to find resources to inspire you and keep you active, mentally healthy, and engaged during this time.
Join our daily Bible story readings, Wednesday Bible study, and find other faith-deepening activities.
Find opportunities to help others during the pandemic.
Find facts and links about COVID-19 here, as well as Hosanna's plan to keep people safe and connected.

ONLINE
Our online worship continues each Sunday at 9:30. Simply click the link above. The in-person service is livestreamed so that we can share worship all together. Drive-thru Holy Communion is offered each Sunday 10:45-11:15.
IN PERSON
We are also gathering in our sanctuary with numerous precautions in place. Sign-up is no longer necessary. Please read about the precautions we're taking and our expectations for attendees.
This is a tough time to be alone. We're here for you.
During this time of avoiding public places, being home so much can get overwhelming and lonely. If you would like to connect with Pastor Mike, please call the church office at 816-781-7991 (leave a message if no one answers) or send him an e-mail at pastormike@hosannalutheranchurch.org.
Please keep up your regular financial contributions.
We have to be realistic. With less people venturing out, church offerings are going to be less. We still have to pay the mortgage, keep up utilities, pay our staff, and fund the resources we're dedicating to connection during the pandemic. If your job is still secure, please keep up your regular contributions. You can mail a check to the church office at anytime, give online using a bank account, credit card, or debit card through our giving page.
