Back to Church Aug. 30th
Monaca UMC will reopen its doors to congregants each Sunday, beginning August 30, 2020.
Pastor Ross Pryor explains his decision and expectations regarding attending worship in-person in his letter.
In his letter, Pastor Ross notes, “By reopening for worship, I am not dismissing the seriousness of COVID-19.”
He adds, “If you’re not comfortable with coming back to church yet, I understand and respect your decision. Please continue to worship online.”
“By reopening for worship, I am not dismissing the seriousness of COVID-19.”

Church services will continue to be recorded on a weekly basis and posted on our Worship page and shared on our Facebook page as well.
