Dear Church,
I hope and pray this finds you all well in this first week of Advent.

I wanted to share the news that a member of my family tested positive earlier this week for Covid-19, and is doing well. I, and the other members of my family, took PCR tests yesterday that came back with negative results.

Following our Phase Forward guidelines, we have reached out to those we believe may have been in contact with the positive family member, but we encourage anyone experiencing symptoms or concerns (as is always good practice) to be tested.

Also following the guidance of our Phase Forward team, I am going to work remotely and will be joining our worship services (beginning this Sunday) via Zoom, until we know we are all able to re-join you again safely. Until then, please know I am here and available for you over the phone or online.

Beloved Church, I am so thankful that we are journeying together through the challenges of these times, and am especially grateful for the dedication of our Phase Forward and leadership teams who are ensuring that we journey together as safely as possible, guided by faith, science, and love.

Blessings and Peace,
Pastor Amy
