COVID-19 RESPONSE PROTOCOLS IN EFFECT AS OF AUGUST 2021
FOR WORSHIP SETTINGS AT ST. PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH
We continue to hold on-site worship at St. Paul Lutheran Church. Recognizing the number of COVID-19 cases in this area, the Board of Elders at their meeting on August, has established the following Sunday morning worship protocols as we continue to move forward out of this pandemic. 
  • The wearing of masks at worship will remain optional.  The use of hand sanitizer is still encouraged. (NOTE: The CDC is recommending the wearing of masks.)
  • In the sanctuary seating will be fully opened. This means every row of pews will be available for seating throughout the sanctuary. The pews will not be sanitized between services. (NOTE: The CDC is recommending the practice of safe distancing.)
  • Registration at worship: Registration cards will be placed in the pew racks with the request that every attendee please register. Registration will be of utmost importance for purposes of tracking, just in case notice of a COVID case needs to be sent to those in attendance.
  • Communion distribution will basically return to pre-COVID practices, with the exception that  the common cup will not yet be resumed. The pastor and the distribution elders will continue to wear gloves, however their wearing of masks will be optional, based on individual preference. Kneeling or standing at the communion rail will be optional, based on individual preference. The communion rail will not be sanitized between tables, but will be sanitized between worship services.
 
To God be the Glory!
