STEPS TOWARD RETURNING...

■ In person on Sundays
At 10 a.m.
All special precautions will be observed, such as masks, social distancing, cleanliness, etc. The safety team has marked off pews and will serve as ushers.
■ We plan to have outdoor under-the-pines worship in front of the chapel whenever we can, to allow us to sing and give oral responses. Don’t forget to bring a lawn chair. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, we will join together in the sanctuary.
■ Online on Sundays
at 10 a.m. and afterward
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, almost all Swift Church events have been postponed or canceled since mid-March, except for the food pantry, which has reverted to its normal distribution schedule of the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month from 10 to 11 a.m. Two adult Sunday school classes have resumed, meeting on site at 9 a.m. On June 7, we moved to Step 2 of a four-step plan drafted by a task force and adopted by the session. On Aug. 17, the session voted to move to Step 3. The goal was to return to the sanctuary for worship on Sept. 13.

“We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.
God will be constantly crossing our paths and canceling our plans.”
— from Life Together by Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1939)
