Session Notes: June 2022

Your Session sat, by Zoom, for its regular monthly meeting this week. The agenda was full and one common theme was the management of change. 

As we begin our third summer living with COVID, we note that about half of our congregation regularly worships in person and the half online. These numbers don’t vary much week to week. If there’s growth potential, it’s probably attracting more live in-church attendance. Throughout the pandemic, we’ve invested time and talent improving the online service.  We’re focusing now on making the in-person service more energizing and life-giving.  

The early returns are good. We regularly see walk-in visitors from our Foggy Bottom neighborhood. 

Another sign of progress…we modestly relaxed our policies concerning food service for scheduled events in the courtyard room so long as we continue to use masks at all other times and spaces in the building. 

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading.
