Good morning North Roanoke,
I have some exciting news! As you may know, the mask requirement in Virginia has been lifted. As such, masks are no longer required during our times of corporate worship and other gatherings (e.g prayer meeting, 3D Group, student ministry, kids ministry, etc). A mask is recommended for those who are not vaccinated. If you choose to wear a mask, that is certainly okay! Our volunteers are no longer required to wear masks, but some may still choose to do so. Until we are able to move to the gym (hopefully late June) and enjoy more space, we will continue to have the pews marked for distancing. As we move forward together, if you have symptoms of sickness and/or a fever, please continue the practice of staying home and joining us for worship by way of the livestream. I think this one simple practice has helped minimize not only the spread of COVID but also of the common cold and flu as well. Of course, when you recover, please return! The Lord is pleased when we gather together, in person, to worship Him and encourage each other (Heb 10:25). I look forward to worshiping with you at 6:30PM today (Saturday) or tomorrow (Sunday) at 10:30AM as we witness two more who are following King Jesus in baptism. In Christ’s love, Pastor Daniel P.S. If you do not have a 3D group, please email me, and I will help you find a group. Small groups are such a vital part of finding community and encouragement, and I will be happy to help you!

As an elderly person with increased risk, I would still like to have the optional of a separate service that offers social distancing , especially since some people will refuse to be vaccinated and will not wear a mask. Since we have previously had two separate services could we switch and have livestream in the sanctuary for those who would like social distancing.

I agree that there should be two options. Those that have unvaccinated children and nonfully vaxed youth being in large packed spaces with potential nonmasked unvaxed people makes me nervous. I would like to continue to have a second service or overflow option so we can actually participate in corporate worship in a safe manner. Comments are closed.
