Update Regarding Public Worship in the Episcopal Diocese of Long Island & at St. John's

Dear Friends,                                                                                                        

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” – Hebrews 11:1

We pray that during this period of uncertainty and social distancing you and your families are finding ways to keep healthy, comfortable, and faithful. On the afternoon of Thursday March 20th there was a conference call for all diocesan clergy with Bishop Provenzano. It was on this call that Bishop Provenzano told us that the suspension of public worship throughout all parishes of the Diocese, due to the spread of the Coronavirus, has been extended to May 17^th, 2020.

This is certainly difficult for us all to hear as it means we cannot worship together for Palm Sunday, Holy Week, and Easter. But, rest assured, your clergy and staff will be working hard to offer more online worship opportunities, including virtual Sunday School offerings. We will continue our Morning Prayer offerings and will develop online worship opportunities for Holy Week and Easter. Stay tuned!

A note for all of us as we continue to navigate our way in these unclear times. George Stimola, our treasurer reminds us, that, St. John's needs us as deeply as we need the church. The clergy and staff are still here for us, making sure that we feel God's love online and on the phone. Can we find a way to maintain our support in these weeks away from in-person services? It's easy and it feels good, like reclaiming a small bit of normalcy and empowerment in the midst of change. We can send checks or give online.

As well, along with the suspension of public worship, also cancelled are: Baptisms in April and May, St. John's Annual Meeting, St. John's Spring Dance, and Confirmation at the Cathedral.

If there are any Pastoral emergencies, or you would simply like to talk to one of your clergy, we are available by phone or email. Please, reach out to us! 

Please know that each of you and your families are in our prayers during this difficult time. Do keep yourselves safe, healthy, and hopeful, for, “hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.” – Romans 5:5.

Peace and blessings from St. John’s,

Father Mark & Father Stephen
