• Spaces for households will be clearly designated, allowing for different size households, and for space between each household for social distancing.
• Masks are required, except when reading for the service.
• Please arrive by 9:15 if at all possible, to allow for time to find a space and settle in.
• Please bring a blanket or towel or chairs to sit on, and if that is a challenge, please just let an usher know when you arrive that you need a chair and they can provide one for you.
• We will celebrate communion! Each person/household is invited to bring their own communion for the service, but if you arrive without just let an usher know and they can provide bread and wine for you.
• We will have music, of course, and invite you to sing loudly and boldly in your heart and spirit, but refrain from singing aloud.
• Bathrooms will be available as single-use spaces, and ushers will help you know when there is a bathroom available for you and your household.
Reflect in these days leading up to Pentecost on how you have seen God at work in the last year, the losses you are grieving, and the gifts you see emerging from this time of exile. The Spirit has been with us all through the journey, and we celebrate her presence especially on Pentecost!
