From Pittsburgh-“While I believe it is of great importance that we continue to worship on Sundays, to offer the ‘sacrifice of praise’ on behalf of the church and the world, I do not want our public gatherings to contribute to a public health crisis,” said Bishop Dorsey W.M. McConnell of the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh.
McConnell said at least five Episcopal parishes in the Pittsburgh diocese are making plans to offer online services.
Among those canceling services for the time being is Cornerstone Ministries, a nondenominational mega church on Route 22 in Murrysville.
“After prayerful conversation with our church elders and staff, we are temporarily postponing all ministry events” through March 27, the church posted on its Facebook page, where it intends to livestream this weekend’s message.
