Second Wesley Congregational Survey

Since our Governor and Mayor have allowed churches to resume in-person worship, cases have continued to increase in 40 different states. Therefore, we want to hear from you again to get your updated thoughts on resuming in-person worship.

The Ad Council now has a better sense of the risks as well as precautions that are now necessary for us to implement. But, the decision to reopen is bigger than the Ad Council. We need all hands on deck involved from the entire congregation. So, your thoughts are important, and will definitely help inform Wesley’s reopening plans. Please answer the following questions, as they apply to you.

1. What are your feelings regarding our decision to -- pause our return to in-person worship? *
