Upcoming Services, Events & Opportunities to Serve
Out of care for one another during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we are continuing to keep "social distancing." As of Sunday, September 13, 2020, we have reopened our public (in-person) 9:30 A.M. Worship Service. We ask that all people worshipping in-person would continue to follow the safety protocols which were mentioned in the Reopening Letter: Reminder that everyone should have signed in on the Tracing Log. We are required to maintain a list of everyone entering our church. Please wear your mask throughout the Worship Service and while you are inside the church. At the conclusion of the Prayers of the People, please pray the Lord's Prayer in the silence of your hearts and minds. At the end of the Service, please wait for the ushers to dismiss your pew row. There will be no coffee hour or other indoor socializing, but please feel free to socialize outdoors as the weather permits. Prayer requests must be emailed to Pastor Greg by 8:00 A.M. on Sunday morning. Thank you for helping to make our in-person Worship Service a healthy and positive experience.
Church Council has decided that in the event that the Town of Perinton becomes an "Orange Zone" for COVID-19 infections, we will immediately suspend al in-person Worship Services. If Perinton becomes an "Orange Zone," you will be notified via a church-wide email.
