As we prepare for our first Sunday of all-indoor services in many months, Rev. Corey Gray shares steps Fourth is taking (and steps each of us can take) to safeguard one another's health and safety. See our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) sheet for further details.
NOTE: To streamline these weekly emails, we've moved some information online. For the latest ministry announcements and the week-at-a-glance, see Fourth Updates online.
