<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><font size="4">Last week we finally were
able to gather back in the sanctuary. We thank all those who
attended for following all of our reopening protocols. We hope you
enjoyed gathering for worship. We will again be holding the service
in the sanctuary this week and hope that will continue. We will also
continue to live stream the service and record it for sharing on our
Facebook page and website. The safety protocols make it possible for
us to reopen.</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><font size="4">PLEASE BE ADVISED: During
the week, we were informed that one person in attendance at the
service last Sunday had been in direct contact with a person who
tested positive for Covid. The testing took place during the week,
and the person in attendance had no symptoms last Sunday and had no
idea they had been in contact with anyone associated with the virus.
We are not sure of the extent of the risk at this level of contact,
but we do feel that the safety protocols we followed last week should
minimize the risk of any harmful contact. That is the reason we
designed the safety protocols. However, we do want to make you aware
that the contact did occur. Every Sunday, we will face the same
risk. Most people have no way of knowing if they have come into
contact with someone who has the virus and is asymptomatic. Our
safety precautions are designed to minimize risk, but we can never
totally eliminate it. We will continue our sanctuary services. We
will continue to take all necessary steps to protect you, and with
your cooperation, we pray we can carry on safely. </font>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><font size="4">USE YOUR JUDGMENT ….If
you feel safe with the current set up, we look forward to seeing you
on Sunday. If you have concerns, please stay home and join us for
the live stream service or the recorded service. We gather with God
in many ways. Be safe.</font></p></div>
