The world has drastically changed as we knew it. Our way of life has been altered due to the many guidelines, emergency orders and precautions of COVID-19. These rulings and recommendations have been challenging to us, as a church, and will continue for some time to come. We all have an opinion on the matter. Not all are happy about it.
