(Updated 02/10/21) We will be switching to meeting in-person and online, Sundays at 10am. Here is a list of guidelines to be aware of as we meet together again:

• We will not serve beverages or snacks on Sunday morning.
• We will not have the nursery available but you are welcomed to use the Cry Room.
• We will not have Kid’s Church but will reassess with a possibility of developing something else later this summer.
• Please practice social distancing as you enter/exit and when seated in the sanctuary.
• Do not attend worship service if you have a fever or don’t feel well.
• Please wash your hands often and use hand sanitizer often.
• Masks are mandatory when meeting in-person until further notice.
• We have the ability to provide a live view of the sanctuary during worship for those who would prefer to stay home. Visit facebook to watch: www.facebook.com/hallsvilleumc.
• Communion will not be offered through the sharing of one cup. We will provide each person with their own cup and piece of bread in the most sanitary way possible.
• We will not pass the offering plate. You are encouraged to give through your bank auto withdrawal, through our website, by mailing in a check or you can leave your offering in our new offering boxes that will be located in the back of the sanctuary.

These guidelines will be in place until the threat of COVID-19 has been greatly minimized. We believe these changes will allow us to safely meet and once again enjoy worshipping together. The Council and I are open to your ideas and suggestions for being Christian community during this pandemic level event. I look forward to being together with many of you soon.
