New guidelines from NH state officials and a discussion with our gathered congregation on Father’s Day indicated that fully vaccinated people can worship unmasked. Those who wish to continue to mask, distance, to meet their unique needs may do so without judgement. Masks and hand sanitizer will still be available. Individual communion packets, spaced seating, and stationary offering plates will still be used.
