Worship Service - suspended until further notice
Friends,
The church council met on November 22nd and made the difficult decision to suspend in-person worship for the time being.
We believe that in-person worship is important, and we don’t make this decision lightly.
However, the number of active cases of COVID-19 continues to rise throughout the state of South Dakota and here in Custer County. The active case numbers in Custer County are
currently at an all-time high, and are projected to exceed 100 active cases in the coming days. Even with a gathering size of only 20 people, there is a 60% chance that someone in that group will have an active, infectious case of COVID-19. The church council believes that the risks of in-person worship are simply too great at this time. We don’t want to be
responsible for anyone getting seriously ill — or worse.
During this time, worship services will continue to be recorded and put on the church website and Facebook page. If you don’t have the ability to access these online worship services, please call Pastor Dustin at 308.430.2634 to be added to our worship mailing list and we’ll mail a transcript of the worship service to you.
In the meantime, we urge you to wash your hands often, wear a mask in public places, and avoid unnecessary gatherings and outings in public places. The only way that we will get this pandemic under control is if we all do our part to stop the spread.
The season of Advent begins. We wait with great expectation for the coming of the Christ-child. May you know hope, peace, joy, and love during this Advent season.
Yours in Christ,
Rev. Bartlett
