Masks Now Optional in Worship!!
From the outset of the CoVID-19 Pandemic, our Session has chosen to listen to scientists and doctor for guidance and information with regard to decision-making. This past week the CDC has significantly relaxed the need for wearing a mask and remaining safe. For those who have been fully vaccinated there is no longer a need to wear a mask outdoors nor indoors. From my reading of several different articles is certainly appears many doctors and epidemiologists concur with this new step.
The overwhelming majority of people joining us in worship have been fully vaccinated. With this in mind our Session has indicated the following for our in-person worship:
1. Wearing of masks is optional.
2. Anyone who would like to continue to wear a mask is welcome to do so.
3. We would recommend and encourage anyone who is not fully vaccinated, to do so, but recognize this is a personal choice. Our recommendation and encouragement is rooted in our concern you’re your safety and well-being, nothing more, nothing less.
4. Safe social distancing is recommended and encouraged.
5. We will continue to “err” on the side of safety.
Grace and Peace, John
