COVID Guidelines for In-Person Worship:

.
The congregation's Leadership Council has established guidelines for our return to in-person worship.
.
It is encouraged that all those attending in-person worship will have been vaccinated and boosted.  The regular Zoom worship link will continue to be available for those who want to participate via online.
.
Masks are optional but encouraged.   The balcony will also be available for those wanting greater isolation from others.
.
It was the hope of the Leadership Council that by adopting the above plan that we could retain the welcoming and inclusive nature of our community and provide a way for everyone to worship.  We ask for your understanding and compliance. These parameters are fluid and will be reviewed and revised as COVID risk levels continue to be monitored.  Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
