Episcopal churches make changes due to COVID-19

From Springfield-

Episcopal churches in the Diocese of Springfield have canceled all events due to coronavirus concerns.

In a letter to church members, Bishop Daniel Hayden Martins said the “ground is relentlessly shifting under our feet” during the current COVId-19 concerns. In response, he said, the diocese will follow guidelines set out by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and local public health officials.

“The nearly impossible task that has fallen to me, then, is to try and navigate the nexus between public health policy, where my opinion carries no more weight than yours, and liturgy, sacramental theology, church governance, where my authority is quite broad,” he said.
