From Millenial Pastor-
It’s been months of isolation, months of
mostly staying home to stop the spread of COVID-19. But active cases are
going down (or maybe not), and politicians and business leaders are
worried about the economic impact of social distancing. And so, for a
few weeks now, things have been opening up. Playgrounds and hair salons,
dentists and restaurant patios are letting people come back.
And things seem to be going well enough,
so the government announces the next phase of opening, which includes
increased gathering sizes. And one of the places you have been missing
the most, your church, sends out an email telling you that they are
going to re-open for an in-person service on Sunday.
You heard from a friend that your Pastor
was against it, but enough folks were pressuring the council because of
freedom of religion, people are getting tired of staying home and surely
church should be a safe place right? Plus you are missing your friends,
the folks you love to see on Sunday mornings, the other couples that
you often go for brunch with following worship.
Finally, the big day comes, you wake up
excited to get back to this important part of your life, to something
that feels little bit like normal, seeing familiar faces, hearing
familiar music, being in familiar community.
