This year of 2020 has been interesting in many ways, especially in the world-wide effect of a pesky virus.  We have become used to the fact that when we go somewhere outside of our homes, we need to be prepared for some kind of screening, and protection may be required before we are allowed entry into most places.   We need to follow rules like wearing masks, taking our temperatures, cleansing our hands, etc.  All these things are important safety measures that will help us to avoid being infected by or transmitting the COVID-19 virus.

In-person services are available beginning August 9th at 9am and 11am.  However, Ada county remains in Stage 3, therefore we have limits and protocols we will need to follow in order to meet.  One of those limits is the number of people that can meet at one time. We request you register before attending one of the two services.  Please plan to do this each week.
