Good People,
One of the most challenging pieces of the COVID puzzle for the church has been thinking through and executing a responsible, safe way to re-engage the many ministries we hold so dear. One of these is obviously our youth ministry. Your clergy and youth minister, Brent Benvenutti, recently gathered to have a conversation about returning to some form of in-person gathering for our 5th-12th grade folks. We have some creative ideas to share with them and their parents.
We would like to invite the youth of St. Mark’s, Redeemer, Trinity, and St. Peter’s-By-The-Sea to a service of Holy Eucharist at 5pm on Sunday, October 4th. We would love to have one parent from each family to join us as well. The bishop’s guidelines for in-person worship will be in place as we will be socially distant and wearing masks. Below is a link to let us know if you would like to be with us.
We’ll worship as well as discuss our plans and your ideas!
Big Love,
Patrick+
