New Attendance Limit - 100 at St. Paul’s
On Friday (July 16, 2021) Ontario entered Stage Three of its re-opening plan. As a result, the Bishops now permit as many people in the church who can maintain "physical distancing of 2 metres". That is, in fact, harder to plan for because the space needed for individuals is greater than that needed for families. So to begin with, attendance at church services at St. Paul's will be limited to 100. That will be increased as we are able to do so safely. All other safety guidelines - the Amber Guidelines - remain in place: masks, distancing, no singing, etc.. We give thanks for the many hopeful signs, looking forward to the day when the colour changes from Amber to Green. August Office Hours The office will be open from 8:30-12:30 for the month during the month of August. Morning Prayer on Zoom - Password Added Morning Prayer is said Monday to Saturday at 7.30 a.m..
