11/16/20 - Update - We have been told by the district that we should not hold on site services at this time.
This is part of the email from the district - Greetings Pastors, as my email and text messages are being filled, I wanted to provide clarity to what was shared in today’s COVID-19 webinar, sponsored by the Annual Conference.
We were blessed to have experts from IU Health that shared data, facts, statistics, and resources for us to continue navigating the unknowns of this global pandemic. We also heard a strong announcement from Bishop Trimble related to our United Methodist congregations in Indiana…Bishop stated, “We are to suspend in-person worship for this Sunday (November 22) and several weeks after, while developing a plan to continue worship beyond the gathering; even through Advent. I know for some, this is another pivot and you may feel your congregation is exempt, but what we heard is that while you may think you are exempt we are all at risk.
