GUIDELINES FOR OUTDOOR IN-PERSON WORSHIP
OUTDOOR SERVICE NOW AT 11:00 AM ON SUNDAYS
We remain committed to our biblical mandate to "love our neighbors as ourselves" and our Wesleyan call to "Do no harm" and "Do all the good we can." We want to do all in our power to avoid the spreading of the coronavirus. It is the most loving thing we can do, and we all need to work together to slow the spread.
We know that about half of our congregation is over the age of 60 and half is under, and we have many people with underlying health conditions. Therefore, we will continue to offer a weekly worship service on Sundays on Facebook, YouTube, our website and WDSL 96.5 FM.
We will evaluate and adjust our outdoor worship service as we go, but we want to start with a manageable number and a specific plan which is outlined below.
