Congregational Update on COVID Precautions 3-17-22 from the Board of Directors:
Your Board reviewed our COVID precautions at our meeting on 3/15/22. Currently, Davidson County incidence numbers are in the medium range. The CDC is advising that masks indoors can be optional in this setting. In view of this encouraging trend, we feel that as of now it is not required that members of the congregation wear masks when together outdoors on campus. We plan to also make masking indoors optional starting Sunday, April 17 (Easter Sunday). Be aware that if you come to that service you may be sitting near members who are not masked. As always, each individual should assess their personal risk level before deciding whether to participate in in-person activities. We will continue to have services live online for those not able to attend in person.
Be aware that it is acceptable for committees and groups to meet in person on campus at this time. Masking should be maintained indoors for now but will become optional as of 4/17/22, as noted above. We would encourage groups to offer virtual (zoom) access to meetings for those unwilling or unable to attend in person. Meeting rooms can be reserved through our website on the Leadership Resources page under the “Community” tab of the top menu, then clicking “Schedule a Room.”
As always, these guidelines are subject to change if the circumstances of this pandemic change over time. Thanks for the patience and resilience you have shown over this difficult time.
