The church office is operating regularly M-Th 9am-3pm, though the doors will remain locked and access managed for safekeeping. Our dedicated church staff will continue to keep a hybrid schedule, combining work at the office and at home. With work projects ongoing in the building this summer, we suggest visits to the church and with the staff by appointment. 
The building is open for scheduled activities, and all in-person gatherings should be coordinated through building coordinator, Matt Dobson, [email protected]. We encourage meeting in person according to our current community health guidelines (masks coming and going indoors, those vaccinated once safely in place can remove them).
