PROGRAMMING UPDATES IN RESPONSE TO COVID-19
On March 24, 2020 we made the difficult decision to suspend ALL Ohio in-person church services and programming until further notice. This is in response to Ohio Gov. DeWine’s order on large gatherings to help slow the spread of COVID-19 through social distancing.
Although the order does make an exception for religious activities, we wanted to come alongside our community to help in this effort.
Below you will find details on what that means for different ministries and groups as well as some answers to questions you might have.
Weekend Services
- We have suspended live weekend services until further notice. As of now we plan to resume live services as soon as possible.
- Until then, we will hold online-only services which will be available each Sunday and can be found on our homepage or on the Grace App.
Groups & Classes
- We are pausing all on-site and off-site groups and classes until further notice.
- Even though we are pausing programing, we encourage you to pursue relationships and community in healthy and creative ways. Our Life Groups as beginning to meet virtually and we would love to help you connect with a group if you don’t have one. You can email us at countyline@graceohio.org.
