St. John’s Episcopal Church
We are having Sunday services this week in the church at St. John’s. St. John’s doors will continue to be open for all Sunday Services depending on the weekly number of COVID19. Masks, social distancing, use of the hand sanitizer and temperature checks are mandatory this week and as long as case numbers are up. Thank you everyone for your help in trying to prevent these numbers to continue to rise. Our prayers continue to be for more people to participate in this cause.
Video will be available for those unable to attend in person.
