As the COVID-19 vaccine rollout continues and more providers offer the vaccine to the public in Montgomery County, there are mixed messages of who can get a dose and where.
One confusing factor is the state, county health department and private providers are providing vaccines under different eligibility criteria.
We have work to do.
The year 2020 was one of the most unexpected years for most of us, starting with wars, famines, earthquakes, natural disasters, and ending with a global pandemic that has shaken the world, turning every aspect upside down.
Jesus warned: “All these are the beginning of sorrows” (Matt. 24:8). But the Son of man will come on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory (verse 30).
What a glorious day that will be! Imagine a life with no sorrow, no pain, no tears because all former things have passed away, even the ripple effect of COVID-19. He said it; we can believe it.
