COVID Response

On March 16, 2022, the Session voted, effective immediately, to make face masks optional on the Derry Church campus. Face masks continue to be required for our nursery caregivers. The west transept of the Sanctuary (closest to the lounge) is designated seating for those who prefer to continue wearing face masks.

We are aware that no decision made by the Session will have universal support. We hope this provides options while also addressing the varied concerns and desires of Derry members.

Anyone is welcome to wear a mask if they feel more comfortable and safer doing so at Derry Church, whether in the choir, attending worship, or at a meeting or fellowship gathering.
