COVID UPDATE
We are all aware of the recent news about the delta variant and the advice of the CDC and the state government. Because the state has not mandated a return to masks, neither will we at Mount Carmel. However, we strongly encourage everyone to give careful consideration to this recommendation during worship. In addition, we have asked the ministers of hospitality to be more careful in releasing the pews at communion to ensure a greater adherence to social distancing and we will return to the practice of a single line for communion in the passaic street transept. Let’s all pray that through increased vaccinations this moment will quickly pass. Be well and be safe.
