When will we open our doors for Sunday worship?

The GTA is still in Phase One of Ontario's staged opening after lockdown. But houses of worship all over the province can open for services. This calls on us to weigh the risks and benefits of resuming worship in the building, especially because we are in Toronto.

Some communities of faith have decided to open the doors to their worship spaces sooner, rather than later. We've found that most Presbyterian and United Churches, and all Anglican Churches in Toronto, will open later, rather than sooner.

Glenview Session has decided not to open for worship right away. Session will meet again on August 4 and set a date for worship in the building then. In the meantime, worship will continue via resources posted on the Glenview website.

Laurence DeWolfe will be on vacation through July, returning on August 4. James Mason will also be on vacation. He will return on August 9.

The number of people permitted at Weddings and Funerals has been increased, but not to the extent of the allowance for a congregation's regular worship.

As we must always say at this interesting time, more news to come!
