Grace UMC Changes:  Updated Friday, December 31, 2021
 
Recent Updates from the Conference office
COVID Numbers:  You will notice the COVID numbers are increasing to an all time high in Minnesota. We are keeping our phasing in Yellow, mostly because so many folks are vaccinated so the risks are different than they were a year ago. But we do strongly urge, if you are not already, masking indoors and limiting congregational singing until the positivity rate drops below 5%. If the positive case number is over 5% we should follow all of the yellow protocols.
 
Summary of Grace UMC Recent Updates
At this time(12/30), Crow Wing county is at 11.3%, Cass county is at 10.7%. If you are following along, the numbers change daily, but have not dropped below 10% in months. As the numbers continue to rise and fall, please prayerfully consider how to keep yourself and those around you safe.  
 
Masking is the easiest thing that we can do. Everyone is still expected to wear a mask within the building please. We are monitoring the county numbers closely and changes may happen rapidly.
