Return To In-person Services

During the May 2021 council meeting, Council President Andrew Stutzke presented the latest data regarding infections, CDC and state guidance, and recommended that the church fully reopen. Masking will be a personal choice, not required. Singing will return, and the building will be open with the exception of the kitchen in the basement.
