“For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.”
Matthew 18:20
We look forward to worshipping in the sanctuary starting August 8th! Whether you attend in person or join the service online, it will feel good to be back in our beloved sanctuary. Remembering that not all our congregation members have the vaccination available to them (the very young and the immunocompromised), for those who attend in-person, we ask that everyone adhere to the following practices:
Practices for Worshipping In Sanctuary
Extending Hospitality to One Another
As we transition to hybrid worship, we want to highlight the importance of extending hospitality and welcome to everyone. Worship leaders will be working to make people receiving the Livestream feel as welcome in worship as those sitting in the pews. This will be a growing edge for us and might be awkward at times, so please be patient!
For those coming to worship in-person, we want to give full permission for people to set needed boundaries, observe safety practices, and keep distance in ways that are comfortable to each. While it will be tempting to hug and hold one another, love can be expressed through bright eyes, kind words, elbow nudges, and fist bumps!
Monitoring as We Go
The Regathering Team encourages everyone who is able in our congregation to get the vaccine. They will continue to monitor and discuss the situation in church and the guidelines coming from the state as we move toward the fall. Please contact us with questions, concerns, encouragement, or suggestions.
