Covid Protocol Updates from the Diocese of Washington Per the latest guidance from our bishop, The Rt. Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, we are suspending hospitality for now. People are still welcome to gather, but we won't be serving food or drink until further notice due to covid concerns. Also, the bishop asks that all who attend services in person wear either a surgical mask or a KN95 mask; if you don't have one, there will be some available in the entryway to the church. If you are wearing a cloth mask, you are asked to double mask. Copies of the bishop's letter are available if you'd like to read it, or you can find it on the church website.
