AUGUST 8, 2020
The KCBH is strongly recommending the use of face coverings in houses of worship, but at this point in time they are not required.  In light of this information each of us has an individual responsibility to make the best choices possible to protect our health during this challenging time. Once again, we must evaluate all available information about this present pandemic and take the best steps that we personally feel are necessary to preserve our well-being and the well being of others around us. 

So that you have the most current information, here is an attached a copy of the signed "face covering" order by the KCBH  (see points 4 and 5-k from this order), as well as a copy of Governor Lee's recommended policy regarding precautions for houses of worship. Feel free to contact me with any questions that you might have. Once again, stay safe, healthy, and faithful! 

Blessings,
Pastor Marcus
