The COVID-19 virus was discovered last Saturday at the Lynn Valley Care Home, bringing this virus a little too close to home for comfort!
Fortunately, none of our members are currently in that facility, and I am not aware of anyone from St Agnes who has visited there recently.
We are taking practical steps to keep everyone safe this Sunday.
Archbishop Melissa Skelton's primary concern is for the health and safety of all parishioners. She has issued a set of directives, based on the best health care information available, to help keep us safe from getting or spreading the COVID-19 virus.
So, this Sunday you will notice:
* We have an ample supply of hand sanitizer to use when you enter the building.
* All the surfaces of the building have been sanitized (including the books and pews) by our hardworking Deacon Lizz, with assistance from our Administrator, Laura O'Reilly.
* We will avoid touching when we greet each other and at the passing of the peace during the service.
* We will receive only the host (bread) at Communion.
* We have cancelled both the 9 am Bible study group and the 11:30 am Coffee Time.
In addition, we have had to cancel some events that were scheduled this month, including:
* March 20th Seniors’ Moment Lunch.
* March 20th Early Spirit Concert.
* March 27th Swing Dance & Jam.
We are monitoring the situation closely. For more information, click on the link below.
