From Massachusetts-
At
the Episcopal Parish of St. John the Evangelist in Hingham, Rev. Tim
Schenck has tried to be proactive by setting up his task force to
discuss what a reopening will be like not only for his church but the
Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts.
Schenck
told MassLive that the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts
has also released guidelines that his church draws from. The Episcopal
Diocese bishop said that there will be no in-person worship before July
1.
“We've
been trying to just do this faithfully and with our eyes wide open from
the start and we're going to continue that,” said Schenck. “I mean even
when the state may well say, ‘okay, it's safe for groups of X number of
people to go [back to church].’ Well, if we don't think it's safe,
we’re going to push that back a little bit further.”
Church
leaders are looking for ways to give sermons but also observe the
restrictions set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as
well as the state.
