In June, Seaside’s Covid Response team made plans to re-open the church offices and re-gather for worship in the Sanctuary on August 2nd, based upon the estimated timeline for entering Phase 3 in NC in July. However, an announcement was made earlier this week stating that NC will remain in Phase 2 until at least mid-August. Therefore, the plan for Re-Gathering & Re-Opening is also being postponed and Seaside will not gather for Sanctuary worship on August 2nd as we had hoped. When NC moves into Phase 3, the Covid Response Team will begin making plans for how to re-open and re-gather. Please continue to pay attention to the emails you receive from Seaside as all plans and dates will be communicated through them. In the meantime, please continue to connect with us on Sundays through digital worship on the Seaside YouTube channel.
It saddens me that my church remains closed during this time of need. I am so fortunate that other churches in the community are opening and welcoming guests. I see no reason why Seaside cannot open and practice the same safety precautions. My prayers are with Seaside and our church family.
I really liked the parking lot and lawn services. I get more out of the message than when I listen on my iPhone. I wish SUMC would consider more outside services till you can open inside services again.
I have a piece of medical equipment to donate, & there is one that I need to borrow. Will someone from the office please call me to let me know if and when this may be accomplished.
