LIFELONG LEARNING MISSION NEWS
Sunday School
Sunday School for children ages 3 years through 5th grade has begun from 9:15-9:45am. At least one caregiver/parent must accompany each household of children. We need adults to stay because we will not be having a sign-in/sign-out procedure and hope to do many activities outdoors if the weather allows. Caregivers/parents are encouraged to participate with their children! Masks are not required outdoors but are still required in the building.
Confirmation
All students entering 6th-9th grade are invited to join confirmation classes on Wednesdays from 6:30-7:30pm.
Bible Study
Join us for Bible Study, led by Myra, on Wednesday mornings from 10:00am to 11:00am in the Fireside Room. Please reply to this email or call the church office at 920.452.4771 to sign up to attend.
WORSHIP AND WITNESS MISSION NEWS
8:00am – Worship in the sanctuary. We will wear masks and distance.
9:15am-9:45am – Sunday School in the parking lot if the weather is nice and in the fellowship hall if the weather is not nice. A grown-up must stay with each household of children.
10:00am – Worship in the parking lot. Masks are optional. We plan to worship outdoors on Sunday mornings for as long as the weather allows us. We will move into the sanctuary (with masks) if the weather does not cooperate.
If you have any questions, please contact Pastor Kristin, or respond to this email. We continue to move forward with care for our neighbor being our primary concern.

RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT MISSION NEWS
Building Use
We continue to follow the recommendations of The Wisconsin Council of Churches. They currently recommend taking a 2 out of 3 standard approach: meet outdoors, continue to distance, wear masks. When we apply 2 of the 3 mitigations, we will be doing much to mitigate risk.
Masks will be optional for outdoor worship and outdoor activities. Masks are still required inside the building.
As always, we ask that people make arrangements with Carrie in advance to use the building (920.452.4771 or reply to this email). Building use requirements are still in place for anyone using the building.
Building Use Requirements
We continue to follow building use requirements because we continue to love and care for each other. Building use requirements for individuals and groups are: staff member must be present in the building (Carrie or Pastor Kristin); masks must be worn; distance of six feet between households; we will wait to eat together for the time being so there will be no shared meals; one person in a bathroom at a time and people are expected to clean after each use on their own using Clorox wipes provided; individuals and groups are expected to remain in planned locations; people should follow the signs regarding entering and exiting the building; if you are feeling ill or have been exposed to anyone who is sick, please do not come into the building. Staff members do not need to attend meetings, but will be present in the building to track people present and clean after.
PRAYER REQUESTS
Please keep the following people in your prayers: Jeremy, Sarah, Joe, Mary, Pete, Pamela, Linda, Eric, Mildred’s Family, Dick Don, Jim, Nora, Mary Ann, and Apostles of Christ.
