Prediction of weather on Sunday morning is almost impossible. The worst prediction can pass us by and then another day we wake up to a foot of snow when 2” was predicted. This does not help when trying to plan Sunday morning worship, meetings, and other scheduled activities. Here is the plan discussed by session.
Saturday around 6:00 pm when the evening weather is broadcast, the pastor in conversation with several elders representing Buildings and Grounds as well as the pastor, will decide what to do for Sunday. Guidance being any ice that will cause slippery roads and 3” or more of snow will be primary criteria for cancelling 10:30 worship at the church depending on the outlook for more accumulation. The forecast can easily change overnight so what seemed OK on Saturday may mean canceling everything early Sunday morning. With the location of our church on county roads that can blow shut right after the snowplow has come through, flexibility is the key.
We will livestream worship as provisions are going to be made to pre-record worship in case weather prevents worship at the church.
