Virtual Voices - 15th edition Virtual Voices The Video E-Newsletter of Mount Royal United Church for Friday Sept 18th 2020 Welcome to our fifteenth edition of the Mount Royal United Church Video E-Newsletter. You will find the video at the bottom of this message. If you have any news items or information you think we should be including in an upcoming e-newsletter, please send your suggestion to newsletters@mountroyaluc.ca
we will do our very best to put it on for you. A quick reminder that Starting Sunday September 27th, our Sunday services our live streamed from the sanctuary will begin at 10:30am and these can also be watched later on the church website. The Prelude will begin at 10:15 with music and the announcement slides before the service begins with Rev. Stuart. This video will be produced and sent out weekly on Friday morning with all the important things from our faith community. We plan to keep them short so you have time to drink a cup of tea or coffee while you watch. We hope you have a very good day today. Best Regards, Newsletter Committee Message from the Chair of Council - Susan Fowler Hello Mount Royal Friends. Welcome to Virtual Voices for September 18th. We have lots of news for you in this week's edition. Tune in as we make a pitch for volunteers in a number of areas, share a great idea for expressing gratitude during the month of October and let you know about some fundraisers we are planning. One is the possibility of an online auction, something we have not tried before. You will hear about plans to reopen the sanctuary for limited, in person attendance in October. The hope is we will be ready for Thanksgiving Sunday. To help us prepare, we plan on a couple of trial runs so don't be surprised if you see a small number of bodies in church during the two services that precede the 11th. Details on what you will need to do to attend worship in person will be sent to you with your Thanksgiving letter and we will do our best to communicate what you should expect when you arrive for a service. An Operations Plan, drafted by the Ad Hoc Committee of Council on Re-Entry was presented to and approved by Council on Tuesday, September 16th. Thanks to Rev. Stuart, the members of the Ad Hoc Committee and to members of Council for their long hours and careful considerations of the safety protocols required for reopening during the Covid pandemic. And of course, for those people not quite ready to return to in person worship, our services will still be live streamed for you to watch at the time of the service or anytime later once the recording has been posted to the website. Effective September 27th services will begin at 10:30am with the musical prelude by France beginning at 10:15. That's it from me for this week. I hope you are well and will tune in on Sunday morning for the Worship Service and hear Rev. Stuart's message entitled "Rewriting the Rule Book". Please reach out to me if you have questions or concerns.
