PC Head:Churches Must Not Rush to Open; Present Services Require Less COVID Cases

The head of the Presbyterian Church (USA) has cautioned congregations against reopening for in-person services amid renewed concerns over the spread of coronavirus, the Christian Post website reports today (June 11, 2020).

PCUSA General Assembly Stated Clerk, the Rev. Herbert Nelson, posted a video online this week on the issue of churches reopening amid eased restrictions on in-person gatherings.

Nelson explained that while worship is important and restrictions are being loosened, churches should "take our time" and "not rush" into reopening for in-person services.

Nelson went on to stress that "the reality is that we are truly called in all these days to remember the preservation of life and that vessel which God has given to each and every one of us."
