COVID 19 UPDATE
Our Redeemer leadership has kept current with and respected COVID safety protocols, CDC Guidelines, etc., throughout the pandemic. We rejoice that Nassau County has one of the highest vaccinations rates in NY State! We further celebrate that many of our members are now vaccinated!
As NY is "opening up" its safety restrictions, we will now move to a "mask optional" protocol in the Congregation, including worship:
• “Mask Optional" protocol for Vaccinated persons!
• Non-vaccinated persons, including children, are strongly encouraged to continue mask wearing
• If you prefer to continue mask wearing, (even if vaccinated), you are warmly encouraged to do so
• Sign-in upon entering is no longer necessary ("track and trace" is no longer happening in the State)
• Hand sanitization is optional- available if desired
• Wine returns to Holy Communion - with individual disposable cups (only you will touch your cup)
• Singing is returning to Worship (and has been added back gradually)
• We will continue to block every other pew (for now)
• The maximum limit, or "top-out" number for participating worshipers has been lifted.
Thanks be to God for scientific advances, vaccinations, and the ability to return, gradually, to a sense of normalcy.
Looking forward to seeing your smiling faces in worship! Thank you!!
Council President's Letter
to the Congregation
As we celebrate Christmas, let’s be thankful for the gift of faith, of the good news that God loved the world that he sent his only Son to save us.
What is the best Christmas gift? Sharing our faith with others. We will be sharing our love of Jesus when we give gifts from the Angel tree, sharing our love by bringing in food for those less fortunate, and donating coats and jackets to keep strangers warm during the cold winter. We can also share our peace in the world where there is so much violence. Let us love one another as God loved us by sending us his son, Jesus.
Best wishes for a peaceful and sharing Christmas.
We look forward to seeing you at one or all of our Christmas services!
Merry Christmas!
Thank you to all who helped decorate the church for our Christmas services. The church looks beautiful and we couldn’t have done it with out you all. There were many hands involved - little and small, and we thank you all!! If you would like to donate money to help offset the cost of the greens in the church, it would be greatly appreciated!
