Task Force: Resumption of In-Person Worship

Posted: June 12, 2020 | Filed Under: COVID, News

In a recent letter to the clergy, members and partners of our synod, Bishop Michael Pryse wrote,

“For almost three months now we have been physically distancing from one another for the love of our neighbour. That same motivation needs to be paramount as we plan for the future.
