Covid-19 Update
Dear Salem,
Your Salem Governing Board and I continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and make adjustments to our response plan as necessary. As you are aware, cases and hospitalizations are beginning to decrease again while vaccination rates are increasing. Children under 12 are able to get vaccinated now. These are all good things.
Therefore, we encourage the use of masks but as an optional measure and some social distancing as well. Please also be respectful of those who prefer a little more distance and/or do not wish to shake hands or share a hug at this time. Choosing to worship or gather in-person or online continue to both be acceptable choices, depending on your risk level.
We have come to a place of recognizing that we live with risks on a daily basis, and while we need to do our best to limit those risks, there are also risks involved to our spiritual growth and mental well-being when we don't meet together in some fashion. Please continue to do your best to do no harm and do good as we seek to faithfully love God and neighbor.
Respectfully yours,
Rev. Andrew Suite
