Letter from
Real Life Church Leadership
To our Real Life Church family,
We hope you and your family are safe and healthy. Throughout this pandemic we have worked as a church to be led by His Spirit, so we can reflect the love of Christ to our community and work for its welfare (Mark 12:31; Jeremiah 29:7). We have worked best to follow guidelines provided by our government in order to do so; however, some government restrictions have brought some concern to the hearts of our teams. This is not just affecting the local churches, but also our schools and businesses, including restaurants, salons, gyms, and retail. Many are experiencing drastic negative effects because of the restrictions imposed on them.
We are concerned not just for the constitutional rights of religious freedoms that are being restricted, but the rights of all citizens and businesses. One of our great privileges as United States citizens is the ability to make our voice heard. We are encouraging you, if you share this concern, to write your local representatives, including Galt city council, county supervisors, state and federal congressmen and women, the governor of California and our president. It is important that we use the legal avenues available to us as citizens to voice our concern. When communicating with your representative, please remember to represent Christ both in tone and content. The apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians 4:15 to “speak the truth in love” (NIV).
And if you haven’t yet, register to VOTE, so your voice can be heard this November. God can use this horrible situation to spur the church into more civic involvement, including politics, business, and education. We as a church should be affecting all spheres of society, not just religious ones.
Below you will find the list of elected officials representing the city of Galt.
We are praying for God’s Spirit to continue to provide us all the wisdom essential to living and leading well in this difficult season. We love you and are believing for God’s greater plan to be fulfilled in your life.
Committed to Serve,
Pastors Matt & Lynn Clayton, the Real Life Church Staff, and the Official Board.
