Now that my father is safely in cardiac rehab, and I've had time to confer with the vestry regarding announcements of loosened restrictions from the CDC and State and Local authorities, we can take a new step into Emmanuel’s post-pandemic rebuilding. Beginning Sunday the 30th, our two Masses will look like this:
Sunday 9 a.m.
- no RSVP requirement or capacity restriction
- masks still required (for the time being)
- we will sing one hymn
we will keep most other pandemic protocols except the one-way route and completely contactless communion
Wednesday 12:15 p.m.
- we will continue a limited capacity of 40 with RSVP required, to ensure social distancing for those who may not be vaccinated or who want a safer environment
- masks still required
- no singing
we will keep most other pandemic protocols except the one-way route and completely contactless communion
It's exciting to be moving forward, and I thank our vestry for their wisdom and sense of an appropriate pace of change.

This coming Monday is the Feast of the Visitation, as well as (on the secular calendar) Memorial Day. The church office is closed on the 31st for the national holiday, and Morning Prayer will not be livestreamed that morning. You can find Morning Prayer for that day here:
