Easter Service
This Sunday morning, Easter, 2020, we will have a drive-in service on the property. This service will have some strict regulations in order to cooperate with the civil authorities with whom we have cleared this endeavor. Please understand, it is a matter of public conscience that we observe the promises that pastoral staff has made on our behalf. Here is what has been promised. 1. We will observe social distancing at all times: a. Car windows will only be opened on one side of the car. b. No one will leave their cars. c. Bathrooms will not be available. (If you must go, give yourself time to drive back home.) d. Participants will not meet for rehearsals in advance of the service. e. We will take no offerings nor provide song sheets. f. We will not pass out communion elements. g. Nothing will pass either “in to” or “out from” the vehicles. 2. To accomplish these objectives, we are doing the following: a. Song sheets are available online. Bring the lyrics with you. b. We will push a notice to phones at the beginning of the service with a link to lyric sheets as well. c. We will not provide communion elements to the crowd or the service participants. d. Musicians have extra long cords to keep them double distanced from each other. There are two exceptions: The Whitneys and Lights have been sequestered together throughout. We live and operate pretty much as one family, so this made sense to us. Also, the Charettes will not need to social distance from each other. We state this so that we can be accountable to the public authorities. e. Baptisms will be by pouring. This provides some distance and avoids cross contamination. 3. Please take time to look at the EASTER SUNDAY tab on the church website. Full details, including maps can be found there.
