​We are excited to announce that we will resume our 8:30 am service on Sunday, October 4.  All of the guidelines  for the 10:45 am service are working well and will remain in place for both services. In addition, after the conclusion of the 8:30 service, the Nave will be closed off and cleaned.  This process should take about 20-25 minutes. The reservation system will reflect both service options, so please be sure to make a reservation if you plan to attend either service. If you are still uncomfortable with returning to in-person worship, please do not feel any pressure to do so.  We will continue to broadcast the 10:45 am service on YouTube.
 
Again, thank you for adherence to the safety guidelines in the past weeks. It is because of your commitment that we are able to reopen.
 
Remember that for the time being, there will be no childcare or Children’s Chapel. There is also no fellowship time before or after the service. The East Corridor past the bathrooms, Parish Hall, and the West Corridor are closed.
 
While we know this is a lot to take in and is significantly different from our traditional routines of church attendance, please know that all of these safeguards have been adopted for your protection and that of your neighbor. 
 
Love God. Love your neighbor…and while you’re at it, love yourself, too!
Presiding Bishop Michael Curry
 
Here are the new processes we have put in place for your safety:

• Make a reservation for the service each week.  Please take this important step as we plan for the number of worshippers to expect and make sure there is socially distant seating available for everyone.  You may either click the links, [8:30a.m.] or [10:45a.m.],to make your reservation online; email the church office with the names of each person in your party; or call the church office at 405-751-7874 between 9:00 am and 1:00 pm Monday through Friday.  You should plan to arrive a little early so you have plenty of time to go through the check-in process when you arrive.
• Masks are required in the building at all times, with the exception of receiving Holy Communion. Please maintain at least a 6-foot distance from others while in the building or on the grounds of the church. If you do not bring a mask, one will be provided.
• Temperature checks by health staff will occur outside the main entrance to the church.  If your temperature is above 100.4° you will be asked to return home.
• Once inside the main doors, check in with the greeters and use the available hand sanitizer.
• Proceed to the Narthex where ushers will direct you to your seat.  Bulletins will be already in the seats. Members of the same household will be seated together.
• If at all possible, remain at your seat during the service. The Presider will bring Holy Communion (bread only) to you at your seat.
• At the conclusion of the service, an usher will conduct you to the appropriate exit. Please wait until the usher dismisses you, drop you bulletin at the receptacle at the door and leave your mask on until you arrive at your car.

 
These same points are covered in a short video prepared for your review – and entertainment!  Click [here] to view the video.

Thank you,

REOPENING FOR IN PERSON SERVICES
We’re happy to announce that we’re scheduled to resume in-person worship on Sunday, September 6th at 10:45 am.  We’re excited about this sign of progress, but want to point out that the service will continue to be live-streamed and recorded for those who are not ready (either physically or mentally) to be present in person.
Father Joe and the Re-opening Committee have instituted a number of new protocols that we believe will make our environment as safe as it can reasonably be.  These new measures include making advance reservations to attend the service, temperature checks at the door, a mask requirement, limited seating for social distancing, hand sanitizer stations, modified passing of the Peace and communion distribution, and no congregational singing.  There will be no fellowship time and no child care or children’s chapel.  All of these new processes and procedures will be explained in detail in a special communication, including a video, early next week.
We are grateful to be able to gather in this way, and thank you for your help in making worship safe for our St. Augustine’s community.

Take a Closer Look, will begin July 27! You'll have the option to participate live each morning at 10am or watch back at any time that works for you. St. Augustine will provide VBS kits with day by day materials (handouts, crafts, supplies) for your participation. The kits will be available at church for contactless pick up or we can drop off to you. An RSVP is needed from all who would like to participate to properly prepare supplies. ALL are welcome (children of all ages, and even adults), and you're encouraged to invite neighbors, cousins, and friends. Email memberengagement@sac-okc.org with your RSVP, total number participating and ages of any children participating. We look forward to a wonderful VVBS as we focus and take a closer look!

​Dear St. Augustine’s Parishioners and Friends:

After carefully considering the upward COVID-19 infection trends in the state and in Oklahoma County, the Committee to Reopen has decided that the safest option for our church is to postpone in-person worship until September.  We made this decision with the health and well-being of our parishioners, clergy, lay-ministers, staff and volunteers in mind. 

We have set September 6th as our new target date for reopening.  Planning for this date is moving forward.  You will see further information about the process and procedures we intend to follow to make our reopening as safe as possible.  Please be looking for further information in the next few weeks.  We will continue to have our on-line worship and learning experiences into the foreseeable future.

While our gatherings will be different, you can expect to see the same welcoming spirit at St. Augustine’s when we are able to worship together again!

Sincerely,

Amy Smith, Chair of the Reopen Committee
