 COVID-19 (seemingly eternal existence) Update 4.01.2021
 
SO many changes!! We have all had to endure the shifting and changing guidelines and allowances of this pandemic existence. And we all have ongoing questions about what all this means.
 
Here are some answers to the FAQ’s we have been hearing from you all:
 
Is the office open? Yes…sort of. Generally, someone is in the office M-F, 9-4:00. Please call ahead if you’d like to stop in, and also please exercise distancing as it’s the polite and right thing to do for everyone’s safety.
 
Why do we have to RSVP for worship? This allows us to do contact tracing if someone were to get infected. It makes it easier to get ahold of who was here to let them know. It also ensures that we have adequate space for safe distancing in our sanctuary.
 
Why can’t we sing in worship? While we love sharing time together in worship, we still aren’t ok with sharing each other’s germs. And singing projects those little germ buggers farther than 6 feet…even with a mask. So, for right now we are holding off on adding that to our worship time.
 
Why are we still offering online services? There are still many people that do not feel         comfortable being together. We want to still include them in our worshiping experiences. So, for the foreseeable future we will be continuing our online services.
 
Where are the hymnals and things in the pews? The less things touched are less germs shared…enough said.
 
Why are we not passing the offering plate in worship? See answer above.
 
When can we have donuts back? APRIL 11th  has been designated as DONUT SUNDAY!! We will be worshiping outside again with our Parking Lot worship and enjoying a donut after worship outside on our lawn. Our first batch of donuts will be in memory of Bill Henry, as he was our donut and coffee set-up guy for years. It will be BYOC (bring your own coffee) though, so bring your mug.
 
If you have other questions that were not addressed here, please reach out to the office as they are the keepers of all the church answers.
