As you may be aware on June 11 Illinois moved to Phase 5- restoring Illinois. This is great news! What does this mean for Moweaqua Sanner Chapel congregations? We continue to follow the advice and counsel of our Bishop and the Cabinet of our conference. The decisions they make has been based on information and guidance from the CDC and the Illinois Department of Public Health. In light of moving to Phase 5 our conference and Bishop have lifted all restrictions.
The current recommendations are as follows: Regarding the wearing of masks- those who are vaccinated are not required to wear a mask in church. Those who are not vaccinated it is recommended, but not required, to continue to wear a mask in church. We will not be asking anyone to state their vaccination status. It is your choice whether or not you need to wear a mask.
Social Distancing is still being encouraged. Hand sanitizing and hand washing is also still encouraged.
Those who are not yet vaccinated are encouraged to get vaccinated if they are able to do so.
If you have any questions please direct them to Pastor Pat and/or the task force members as we work to follow the guidelines we have been given to keep everyone healthy and safe.
