 RE-ENTRY PLANS IN PROGRESS (an update from Father Duane) Dear friends, It has been 13 weeks since we began worshiping and gathering online. As much as we’ve adapted to our new way of doing church, we also long to see each other and gather together in person. At this month’s Vestry meeting, we will finalize our plans for July, August, and September. Our discussions will continue to reflect on the theological, moral, and legal implications of gathering in person. The Vestry, staff, and I are looking at how we can safely uphold our core value of welcoming all while observing mandated restrictions. There are new procedures and precautions to be defined and delegated. And we must find a way to continue to include those who can’t join us in-person because of distance or risk. I ask your patience as we figure all these things out. I expect to be able to share a detailed plan with you before the end of the month. Please remember us in your prayers as we seek to safely gather our congregation with a focus of bringing the Good News of Jesus Christ to everyone. WHAT'S THE BUZZ?
