COVID-19 UPDATE
Based on mandates from the RI Department of Health and the New England Conference, and informed by the responses to a congregational survey about resuming in-person worship, the Reentry Team and Church Council do not believe it is wise to resume worship indoors at this time.
However, on Monday, June 15 the Reentry Team submitted a proposal to the Church Council for conducting outdoor Sunday worship services. That plan was approved and outdoor services will begin on July 5 at 9:30 AM. It will be important for all attendees to follow the guidelines for safely attending those services, which you can download by clicking here. Please note that online worship will continue to be available for those who are unable or choose not to attend in-person worship.
The Reentry Team will continue their work of developing a plan for reopening the building and restarting indoor worship when it is safer to do so. Please continue to pray for our church, and in particular for the work of the Reentry Team as we discern how best to move forward.
Feel free to contact the Reentry Team with questions or concerns at reentry.amumc@gmail.com.
