As you will recal l,  normal physical church gatherings ended in mid-March due to the onslaught of COVID-19. Given the public health emergency, we simply closed our doors and went online. I wish that I could tell you that as we look ahead to  reopening it will be  as straightforward as unlocking the doors and picking up where we left off. But, of course ,  it isn't. In fact, we are looking at a phased  reopening as soon as possible after Labor Day. The exact Sunday we will open our doors has yet to be determined,  because the Vestry's final determination will be based on the best (emergent) public health advice available at the end of August. In the meantime, Vestry sub-groups are working over the summer to ensure that, when we do reopen,  policies and guidelines will be in place to ensure we are safeguarding everyone's health to the best of our ability.
