They say, “It ain’t over till it’s over,” and I’m not at all sure that we’ll know when “it’s over” when it comes to the Coronavirus-19 pandemic of 2020-21. But with a majority of adults in the United States either being vaccinated or having acquired immunity from having the disease, it is expected that the virus will find it harder and harder to find a “home” in the human population and will fade into the background along with the other pathogens that surround us, and which our immune systems are able to ward off most of the time. Thanks be to God! At the same time, and as restrictions and mandates disappear almost as rapidly as they came into effect last year, there’s a certain awkwardness to being in public spaces. We’ll need to get reaccustomed to going without a mask, offering a handshake, and automatically taking a step backward to distance ourselves from one another. And we will; but each of us at our own pace, so this is a time to be especially sensitive to one another’s “social cues.” When in doubt, just ask “are you OK with sharing a hug?” or whatever; and if the answer is “no, not yet,” know that it’s nothing personal. At St. Mark, for now we will maintain every-other-pew seating. If you have COVID-19 immunity, masking or not masking is your choice. And as we’ve discovered over the past year, things are always subject to change. By God’s grace, we are, too. Pastor Deborah Wissner 
Sunday School will take place during part of the church service until further notice.
