From Chicago-Many houses of worship continue to hold virtual services and are proceeding with a gradual return to in-person services. However, while churches and other houses of worship are now free to hold public, in-person gatherings, faith leaders appear to be easing into it – or even staying remote, for now.
St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, in Barrington, has continued to hold
all services online, said the Rev. Jesse Perkins. The Episcopal
denomination’s bishop is permitting clergy to return to work in the
building, so the church began Saturday to live-stream services from
inside the church, rather than producing worship videos from their
homes.
Perkins said his church is looking forward to the implementation,
likely later this summer, of Phase 4 of the state’s reopening plan where
public gatherings of up to 50 people will be permitted.
