Hello Friends,
I hope that the summer has been peaceful and restful!
As I noted in my Wednesday Words of Care a few weeks ago, Exeter United Church will resume in person worship beginning Sunday, October 4, 2020 at 10:30 a.m.
This will be a different experience! I attach to this letter 'Sunday Protocols' that outline the changes that have been made to ensure that those who choose to return to in person worship in the sanctuary will be SAFE! Please review them carefully. Call the office if you have any questions (519-235-0860) or email us (exeterunitedchurch@gmail.com). We will be happy to answer your questions.
Also, to help us with Sunday morning welcome and check in, we are asking that if you believe you will attend on Sunday to call or email the church by 3pm on Friday if you plan to attend church on the following Sunday and provide your name(s) and your telephone number (pre-worship attendance indicator). So, for this first Sunday, we would ask you to contact us by 3pm on Friday, October 2. This will give us an opportunity to create the contact tracing list. If you change your mind or don't contact us, no worries! Please come! We will add your name and telephone number to the list then!
I also assure you that the digital/online worship material will continue for those who are unable to join us in the sanctuary.
Don't worry if you forget something along the way - we will help with reminders!
Lastly, a quick word about money! We have been away from worship and the sanctuary for 6 months. I had encouraged you each week to continue your offering at home! If you have done this, I hope you will bring your gifts on October 4th if you are joining in person! We will celebrate your generosity together!
The Finance & Stewardship Team is and will be working hard to see what our financial picture will be once we resume in person worship. Stay tuned - when we know, we will let you know, most likely by early November!
Blessings to you.... I am anxious to be with you!
