Greetings!

Recommendations for Management of Church Services In Archdeaconry of ST. Vincent and the Grenadines. 

There has been local spread of the COVID-19 virus in St. Vincent and the Grenadines and the authorities have issued recommendations for the managed conduct of mass gatherings both outdoor and indoor which includes church services. I am asking that you kindly follow the recommendations in the attached document, page 3 ” Indoor Gatherings” refers to church services. This is restricted to St. Vincent and the Grenadines for Grenada and St. Lucia had community spread earlier and their guidelines were circulated.

I am asking you to kindly encourage members in your congregations to prepare, so that if or when an order of evacuation is given they will be ready to do so.

Prayers

I ask your prayers as we continue to manage the response to COVID-19 across the diocese and as La Soufriere Volcano continues to have an effusive eruption.

With every good wish and God’s blessings!

Sincerely
The Rt. Rev’d C. Leopold Friday
Bishop of the Windward Islands
