Families may sit together in the pews or in their own chairs. There will be no singing at this point. Please enter the front of the church and walk back to the outdoor chapel and leave the same way, with masks and socially distanced.The worship service will be live streamed at the same time as outdoor worship and will be available on Facebook, YouTube and the RUMC website.If the weather on Sunday is 60 deg. or below, rained the night before, or is raining, we will not have worship in the outdoor chapel.
