From May 3, 2020.
Covid Updates for Phase 1
Sunday Worship Services
- We will continue online-only services through the month of May.
- We are hoping to launch a hybrid service in June. By “hybrid,” we mean a service that would be both in-person (socially distanced) and streamed online. To accommodate recommended “best practices,” we will likely need to have multiple services.
- As of this family meeting, we are still looking to finalize a temporary location.
Community Groups
- Groups should continue to meet via telecommunication.
- Groups will officially conclude in May. Please fill out your group feedback form.
- We encourage you to stay in touch over the summer.
Other Items
- Financial Assistance. If you have a need or know of a need, please let us know.
- Budget updates. Currently, our budget is holding steady, and in good order. (If you would like to see the budget slides, please contact us.)
- Organic church: Our church is more than just an organization; we are a living organism. As such, as restrictions lift, we encourage you to consider new ways to connect and encourage one another on your own.
