• COVID-19 UPDATE (June 22)

  REOPENING

  First of all, thank you for everything you have done, your patience, your concern, your support and generosity which has brought us this far. These are unprecedented times in the life of our congregation.

  We are going to re-open, but it will not be a return to normal. This is a dangerous, persistent and sneaky virus. More than ever, we need to care for each other. This is going to be the basis of our re-opening.

  Let me caution you. This is not going to be easy. It will at times be awkward and frustrating. What we need to do to be safe will defy the very friendliness we are used to as a Christian community. But if we are to “love our neighbor as ourselves” so to keep everyone safe and well, these are the things we must do.

  I am grateful to the “Re-opening Task Force”, for their willingness to help guide us through these times. They will install, monitor and change our practices based on what works best.

  Thus, we will error on the side of caution. Here are a few things we can expect:

  • Worship attendance will be limited to 50 or less.

  • Worship will be Sunday at 9:00 a.m. and Wednesday at 6:00 p.m.
  • Social distancing (except for family units) will be maintained
  • Masks will be required for all worshippers (children are at parents' discretion)(please bring your own or one will be provided).
  • The worship will be the same on both Sunday and Wednesday.
  • The Sunday Worship will continue to be livestreamed.
  • The Wednesday Worship will not be livestreamed.
  • We will not sing hymns and congregational responses will be limited.
  • Decisions on having communion are still in process.
  • Worship can be joined in the church parking lot via our new FM radio transmitter (90.9FM).
  • If you are not comfortable coming to worship at this time, or have conditions that make you more vulnerable, please stay home. Then, your options are:

  * Join us via livestream on our Central Mondovi Facebook page.

  * If you would like, you can worship in the church parking lot from your car via your car’s radio (90.9FM).

  * We can deliver to your home, a DVD of the worship service.

  • There will be no coffee hour and worshippers are asked to not linger following worship.
  • Cleaning of all pews, and areas of contact, doors, switches, bathrooms etc. will be cleaned after each service.
  • Additional worship services may be added in the fall.

  • Confirmation, First Communion, Sunday School are all being evaluated for best practices and you will be informed as the situation evolves.

  This is a start. Again, thank you for your patience. We will see this through together.
