• You’ll be greeted upon entering the church and asked a few questions.
• Face masks will be required for everyone.
• Some pews will be blocked to maintain social distancing; an usher will help direct you.
• Out of respect for others, please refrain from shaking hands or hugging.
• Offering plates will be available at the entrance and exit of the sanctuary.
• When services end, attendees will be dismissed by section to avoid hallway congestion.
• No nursery staff will be present, but the nursery space will be available.

ARTS ALIVE OPEN HOUSE, JANUARY 3

CANCELLED: FAT TUESDAY PANCAKE DAY (Feb. 2021)

Once again COVID-19 has forced a decision, and that is to cancel our Fat Tuesday Pancake Day this coming February 16, 2021. It is just not safe enough to have such a large gathering. Supplies must be ordered and arrangements made in order to put on this day long event and it is just not feasible to do so at present. We are disappointed not to be able to do this fundraising mission, but look forward to next year when we will resume this annual event.
