COVID-19 Updates
Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” –Mark 12:30-44
The CDC recently updated its guidance and now recommends that fully vaccinated people wear a mask indoors in public when in an area of substantial or high transmission to maximize protection from the Delta variant of Covid-19. The Holy Trinity COVID Task Force made the decision that whenever Catawba County has a Substantial or High Level of Community Transmission as defined by the CDC, masks will be worn by all people when attending worship and indoor ministry activities at Holy Trinity. The CDC County Map indicates that Catawba County currently has a HIGH level of community transmission.
When the Level of Community Transmission in Catawba County falls to Moderate or Low levels, the COVID Task Force may recommend that mask wearing for fully vaccinated individuals be optional. Church policy will be updated as COVID numbers and CDC guidelines change. We support mask-wearing for any and all reasons.
