Our re-opening is happening in four phases.
PHASE ONE: By invitation
We started our in-person worship on Ash Wednesday, February 17 and our first Sunday service on February 21.
For all services, Covid protocols are in place. We ask that you maintain social distancing in the parking lot, courtyard, and sanctuary. Masks will be required at all times, but we will have limited space in the courtyard for those who can’t or won’t wear a mask. There will be no singing during the abbreviated 40 minute service. Our new Halo units on the HVAC are one reason we feel more confident in reopening.
Seating will be marked so that we are able to maintain social distancing. Ushers will ask for your name so that in the event we need to contact trace, we can do so. Of course your privacy will be maintained at all times if that happens.
PHASE TWO: Weekly Reservations
We are currently operating in Phase Two, in-person attendance through a reservation system. You will be able to make reservations online or by calling the office. Reservations will accepted for the coming week, and we ask that you sign up for every other week to allow more members to attend.
PHASE THREE: Extended Capacity
As we start to learn these new ropes, we’ll be adding more seating in the chairs in the Fellowship Hall.
PHASE FOUR: Multiple Services
Once we have enough interest, Phase Four will be adding multiple services each week. Will they both be on Sunday? We’re not sure. How many can attend? We don’t know. When does each new phase begin? We have no idea. We need to work through each step to insure that we can open more fully with grace.
Thank you for your patience, your prayers, and your grace as we begin yet another journey into the unknown!
