The Ministry Council has reached a consensus to remain virtual for worship
and will reevaluate this stance on a regular basis as the COVID statistics are updated.
Ultimately, the Council agrees that new weekly positive cases in Mifflin County should be around or under 100 before considering in-house worship (which would still employ physical distancing and wearing masks). Thanks for your patience and compassion for all of God's church during these virulent times. Peace.
