+++++++++++++++
By order of the Executive Minister of First Dawn Eastern Edge of The United Church of Canada, the closure of our churches has now been extended to the end of April. The situation will be reassessed at that time.
The Covid 19 situation is quite fluid and the implications change daily. Please continue to follow our website and Facebook page for details.
The latest directive from the province’s Chief Medical Officer is that, in the event of a death, there will be no visitation or funeral. Burials are limited to a maximum of 5 people – including Clergy and Funeral Director.
The same directive orders weddings to be limited to 5 people as well – simply the couple, the clergy, and the two legal witnesses.
Both Rev. Wayne and Office Administrator, Tracey, will be working from home until further notice. Rev. Wayne can be reached at 596-6439 or 597-1346. Tracey can be reached at 596-1279.
Worship services will continue to be carried out through Facebook Live on a weekly basis. Simply join our Salmon Cove Perry’s Cove Pastoral Charge Facebook page:
