Church Services Suspended Due to Health Emergency

Statement from ELCA Conference:

——————————————————————————————-

In order to do our part to protect our communities, care for vulnerable populations and flatten the curve of the COVID19 virus, all ELCA congregations in the Upper Iowa River Conference will:

•Temporarily suspend all in-person worship, following CDC guidelines recommending no in-person gatherings for more than 50 people. These guidelines also indicate that if you serve high risk populations you should suspend gatherings even if the gatherings would include fewer than 50 people.

•Temporarily suspend all weddings, funerals and memorials until May 11.

•Graveside services will be offered for immediate family only and physical distancing of 6 feet will be maintained carefully. Memorial services will be scheduled at a later date.
