As you are aware, several individuals contracted the COVID virus over the past week and thus we shutdown services last Sunday as a precautionary measure and to head off any further contagion in our congregation. Now, most of those with COVID are beyond the isolation date recommendations and services will be resuming this Sunday.

Due to the increases we have seen, we will re-implement some health and safety measures as we have in the past. As always, It is our desire to provide options for worship that allows everyone to attend and be as comfortable as possible.

For your health and safety and the well being of others:

• Remain vigilant. Whether you have received a vaccine or not, common sense should always be the rule with any virus. If you feel you are ill and especially if you are running a fever, please remain at home and join us LIVE on your computer, tv or cell phone at live.mtolivetbaptist.com.

• Masks Remain Optional. If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask while attending any event at our church, please feel free to do so. There is no judgment regarding masks at MOBC.

• Online Worship: Our live online worship continues each week at 10am on live.mtolivetbaptist.com. Each service is edited and published on our website and on FaithLife each week following our service.

• Simulcast Venue Re-opens. Due to the recent situation in our church our Simulcast Venue in the Family Life Center will re-open this week for our 10am worship service. If you feel more comfortable attending in more spacious setting, feel free to join us LIVE in the Family Life Center.

BIG BREAKFAST will be provided as scheduled. However, this will not be a "covered-dish" breakfast. Please do not bring items to share. The Church will be providing breakfast food for everyone and those preparing and serving will once again wear masks and gloves as we have previously.
