COVID-19 Policies

As we return to in-person worship services, it is very important to us that we protect those in our community who are at risk or those who have compromised immune systems. In order to keep our gathering sizes small, we will be repeating each worship service two weeks in a row. Both services will be the same. The first Sunday of each pair will require everyone over the age of 12 to provide proof of vaccination (or proof from the Government of Manitoba that there is a medical reason for not receiving the COVID-19 vaccine).

However, as much of our history has been grounded in the idea of hospitality, our second service in each pair does not require proof of vaccination (although we still strongly recommend getting vaccinated).

Masks are required for both services and both services will be the same.
Please call us at 204-783-0128 during office hours
to let us know you are coming.

Young Office hours are:

Tuesdays 1:00 – 5:00
