An update from the COVID-19 Task Force

August 18, 2021

In light of the increase of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in our area, the Perdido Bay United Methodist Church COVID-19 Task Force met on Monday evening, August 16. The TF discussed local and extended data, updated guidelines and recommendations from experts and government sources. We reviewed our current protocols to ensure a safe worship environment today and committed to review these protocols so as to react to any changing conditions. The COVID-19 Task Force continues to recommend that all persons on our campus follow the CDC guidelines as well as the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations which states that masks are recommended for both vaccinated and unvaccinated persons during indoor gatherings. 

The Task Force has maintained an ardent desire to protect the most vulnerable among us. The delta variant of COVID-19 has proven to be more contagious than the previous strains including a higher infection rate in those 12 years old and younger who are unable to be vaccinated. If you have questions regarding the response of Perdido Bay United Methodist Church, please contact the COVID-19 Task Force chair, Pete King: pete@perdidopete.com. 

Thank you for continuing in this effort to love one another as we seek to be the heart of the community. 

In Christ,

Perdido Bay United Methodist Church COVID-19 Task Force
