[Tamara Marteney]

My son started coughing last night,
 so I am going to quarantine us just in case.

Hi again, everyone,


I have started working on a modified order of service this morning. You can follow along here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wabQutDtp38hc-55fR7b9dlvpoFPlQFWmTc1GCd-chc/edit?usp=sharing


Some key points...


For the hymns, I think we'll want the choir to sing these. This would include: Gathering Song, Opening Hymn, Spirit of Life, and Closing Hymn. People can sing along from wherever they are. 


If the choir members are comfortable with it, I think it would make sense to have them seated in chairs on the chancel rather than down in the pews.


Eliza - I'm still planning on having you play a Prelude and Postlude.



We had a Planting Hope testimonial scheduled and it sounds like this will still happen with a few youth from the congregation sharing. I'm in touch with them separately.


Margot - I'm not sure that at this point it's necessary for you to participate, though I still welcome you to. Because it's such a different format, I think it makes sense for me to do the Welcome. I will also need to come up with some alternate words for the Offering and may not be able to get that to you with enough time to review before tomorrow. Please give me a call if you see this so we can touch base, 802-829-7420.


Thanks for rolling with this everyone! (And who knows, next Sunday may be something entirely different!)
