Dear Fellow Members of St Paul's.
After much discussion among the Elders, we have decided to make some changes in order to move closer to normalcy.
USHERING: If you would like to help with greeting/ushering, please see the sign-up sheet on the bulletin table. We ask you to volunteer only if you feel comfortable. Ushering duties at this time are greeting, helping people find a seat, and lighting/extinquishing candles. The offering plates will not be passed yet at this time.
FELLOWSHIP: We would like to begin having coffee (cookies, if you wish) available for fellowship time starting in May. We would need volunteers to sign up to prepare and serve the coffee. there is signup sheet on the kitchen serving counter. We ask that you would please respect social distancing guidelines during this time.
Hymnals: Hymnals have been returned back to the pews. Please feel free to use them.
Communion: We have decided to return to our normal communion schedule of 2nd, 3rd, and 5th Sundays starting in May. For the time being, we will offer a continuous line style communion during the service on those Sundays. We will commune one side of the church at a time with the balcony going at the end of the first side. We ask that you come up to the front of the church using the side aisle and return via the center aisle. Elders will be available to assist with the flow. Wafers and individual cups will be spaced apart on trays for you to pick up. The blessing will take place once everyone has communed. We ask that you respect social distancing guidelines when coming through the line. As we have done in the past, you can let Pastor Jobe or an elder know prior to the service if you would like to be communed in your pew. If you do not feel comfortable participating in the continuous line, please come to the front of the church following the service and we will offer communion to those individuals and also to anyone who comes in from listening outside on the radio.
thank you for your flexibility this past year and please continue to be patient as we find ways to safely move back toward our normal Sunday morning service.
