Thanks to so many of your for responding to the Parish Survey. As of right now there have been 53 responses out of 100 which is amazing. It is not too late to respond. Let us or Michael know if you did not receive a survey or if you would rather receive one by mail.
Here are some rounded-off results from the survey:
51 % have participated in online worship. (So, no, the responses have not been only from Zoom participants).
72% are in a high-risk category
50% (exactly) said they're likely to attend if we started in-person soon.
25% (exactly) said unlikely,
25% somewhere in between those two.
72% said they would come after we described precautionary measures
83% of those who said they would be uncomfortable returning would continue with virtual worship; 6% are unable to do that
81% said they'll bring cleaning supply
Breakdown of age groups of those responding (Total is 102% because of rounding)
41% -- 71-80
27% -- 61-70
14% -- 81-90
8% -- 31-40
8% -- 51-60
4% -- 41-50
"We are currently working with a target date of June 7 for our first in-person regathering at the church: target, because no one can predict what may happen before then. We will provide ample information about what to expect, what precautions to be prepared for (masks, etc.) beforehand."
****Bishop Doyle has announced that there will be NO CONGREGATIONAL Singing until further notice. Fr. Michael has announced this in earlier emails.
Thank all of you so much for being diligent with your commitment to Epiphany offering.
From the Senior Warden:
The Vestry will be working on our re-entry guidelines tonight in their monthly virtual meeting.
According to our schedule Sherry Musgrove and Diane Hays will be reading the lessons and prayers during this coming Sunday virtual service.
Happy Anniversary to Carcy and Emily Clinton who celebrate their anniversary on May 22
and to Jane Scheidler and Otis Maclay who celebrate their anniversary on May 25.
Have a blessed week,
Stay well,
Carpe Every Diem,
Rufus and Sandy
