Mary of Magdala Leadership Council requests your input!

______________________________

Greetings to our wonderful community of Mary of Magdala:

As we all struggle to adjust to not gathering in-person as a faith community, we can often feel a bit empty without the personal connections that fill our hearts and souls.

Church, fellowship, and celebrating the Eucharist are all a part of the life we’ve put on hold until we can resume our Sunday celebrations in the Trinity sanctuary.

Mary of Magdala, along with many other faith communities has adopted virtual celebrations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The members of the Leadership Council recognize that these online events may not easily translate into a deep spiritual or personal experience -- the same way gathering together to share the Eucharist does for many of us.

We are is exploring new ideas to create a “staged return.” This means that we will likely be unable to gather the entire

community together this summer. As such, we are considering gathering outside in small groups of less than ten, when safe and allowable.

Before such time that we can gather in person, we would like to hear from you to help guide our decisions as we plan for meeting the needs of the entire community. We know we are more than a building and we carry our community in our hearts. With your help - we may find new ways of experiencing Church together as we navigate these unprecedented times.

We value your feedback. Please open the survey link below and spend just a few minutes to express your thoughts and feelings. This information will help guide our decision making in the weeks and months ahead.

With sincere gratitude - Mary of Magdala Leadership Council

Please complete this survey by June 7. It should only take about 5 minutes.
