[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3532066, member: 7900"] With our church, they started a program called "Life Groups" a number of years ago. Those are groups of people of the church gathering in private homes for additional services and Bible studies. Initially, membership would attend the morning worship at the building and the Life Groups would meet sometime later, some right after morning services and others in the evening instead of evening worship services at the building. With the advent of Covid, more was done (at least with our Life Group) in the small group setting in the private homes. While we've maybe had one or two contract Covid, it apparently wasn't from others at the Life Group meetings. Today was the first day that they actually had in-person services at the building since this all began about a year ago. Our Life Group mostly chose to view the services via online sources and in some members' home. One of our elders contacted me a while back about in person services, and I told him we would return to those services once they ended the mask and social distancing mandates. The wife and I have worked, vacationed, and traveled through 12 states since Covid came about and seldom wear masks. We regularly take Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, and other supplemental products and rarely ever even get a cold. We would love to get back to worshiping in person, but it isn't the same with social distancing and masks. [/QUOTE]
