Description

Hear the Christmas story, and celebrate Eucharist under the stars. End by lighting flashlights in lieu of candles and humming silent night. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, prayer book, and a flashlight for worship on the lawn.How to PrepareParticipants accept the responsibilities of gathering in pandemic conditions and agree to abide by the following practices for everyone’s health and safety: • Pray: Talk with God about why you wish to participate and what you hope to gain. Mentally prepare to keep the necessary distance. Consider how you will greet others you see without touching. Discern whether it is better for you to remain at home at this time. If you feel any sadness about that, offer that feeling to God. • Check your health: Before arriving, ask yourself how you have been feeling. Do not attend if anyone in the household is experiencing fever, cough, sore throat, loss of energy, nausea, loss of taste/smell or other symptoms of COVID-19 or other communicable disease. If you believe any of you have been exposed to COVID-19, or anyone with symptoms of COVID-19, or to anyone who may themselves have been exposed, regardless of your current symptoms, please do not attend. The Church reserves the right to ask those expressing symptoms to separate from the group, leaving the grounds of the Church until you are feeling better and symptom-free. • Face Masks: Please bring your own face mask or covering with you and wear it throughout your time on campus.
