From the Moderator:
Dear Center Church Congregation,
The State of Connecticut has again reached the 15+ rate of cases in all but three towns in CT. The hospitals in CT are again opening areas specific for the virus and the Mediquick on Pomeroy Avenue has closed due to illness of their staff.
The Christmas holiday gatherings, the Omicron variant's increased ability to spread faster and the increase in breakthrough cases of those fully vaccinated and boosted has substantially increased the risk of keeping the church open.
The Church Council has voted to close the church until the number of cases again diminishes in our area. Both our secretary, Joan Gordon, and Reverend Filkins, (when he returns on January 11, 2022) will be working remotely.
Joan Gordon may be reached by calling 203-514-2088 during regular office hours.
After January 11, 2022 Reverend Filkins may be reached at 203-626-1017.
If there is a need for emergency pastoral care, please contact Deacon Barbara Langner.
Our sharing Sunday with FCC Cheshire has also been canceled as they move to online worship as well.
Thank you and stay safe,
Deborah Gaffney, Moderator
