Updating Covid Restrictions for St. George’s
The “Coming together” team met recently and came up with some changes that we want to make you aware of and implement as soon as possible. Here are the things that will change:

We will eliminate the need to pre-register for any and all services.
We will be putting the name tag rack of drawers out so that people can start wearing name tags again. We just ask that you use hand sanitizer, before you grab your name tag.
We will be putting all hymnals back into chairs
We will be increasing the rows of chairs in the sanctuary. It will allow for more seats to do your choice of social distancing from.
No masks are needed whenever you are outside of the church, either attending an event or standing around talking with others after or before a service.

We are not changing the indoor mask requirement or addressing in-person hospitality until later in the summer.

Altar Guild Volunteers Needed
Now that we’ve returned to having two services each Sunday, the altar guild needs a few more volunteers. Training is provided.
