WoRship Options During COVID

Public Worship

Our doors are open for public worship. Live-streaming the service from home is available on our Youtube channel. When we gather in person we will mindfully adhere to the recommendations of the CDC and local officials for St. Louis city and county. 


A Call To Love and Unity

We understand that people are responding to the spread of COVID-19 in a variety of ways. As Christians, we are guided by the summary of God's law to "love your neighbor as yourself."  This means that we are willing to set aside our own level of comfort for the comfort and wellbeing of our neighbor. As we gather for public worship we want to be extra mindful of the safety of others as well as ourselves. And of utmost importance, we want to maintain love and unity in the process. Let's name the fact that this is going to be awkward. Let's not let our variety of responses to the pandemic divide us from our brothers and sisters in our own church or those in other churches who may do it different from us. We are cheering each other on as we approach our common challenges in unique ways.
