* Our clergy, lay ministers, and others engaged in direct ministries are required to be vaccinated, and we strongly encourage vaccines to everyone, as well as booster shots. 

* Masks are available for anyone at increased risk, or for those preferring to wear one, but are not necessary for vaccinated parishioners and visitors.  

* St. John's sanctuary and coffee-hour reception area are both well-ventilated with modern air-purification equipment.
