PATH FORWARD TASK FORCE

the coming days. We are grateful that so many of the metrics with COVID-19 are trending in the
right direction. Therefore, we are making masks optional inside the church beginning today
for all church services, programs, and activities. Those who wish to continue wearing face
coverings will be free to do so.
The only exception to this policy will be among preschool and grade school children and those
who work with them. Masks will continue to be required for ages 4-11 and those that work with
them. We know that this has been a difficult two years for all of us and we pray that as we
continue to come back together that we do so with a renewed love and purpose for sharing
and serving Christ together.
The Path Forward Task Force will meet again in mid-March to reconsider our policy with
preschoolers and children. UPDATED 2/24/22
