Our leadership has been monitoring the rise in COVID cases in recent weeks and has decided to adjust our mask policy as a result. Beginning August 22, we will require everyone to wear a mask at Sunday worship, regardless of vaccination status. Infections and hospitalizations have increased dramatically over the past couple of weeks to the point that our area now has “substantial” virus transmission, a situation in which the CDC recommends an indoor mask mandate.
We are uncertain at this time how long our new mask policy will be in effect. Please remain flexible as we do our part to help limit the spread of the virus. From the beginning of the pandemic, our desire has been to love and care for others by prioritizing safety. We believe requiring masks is the best way to keep everyone safe during Sunday worship at this time.
