Hennepin’s Phased Reopening Plans

We’re Dialing Back to the “Red Phase“

Hennepin Avenue UMC’s leadership continues to closely monitor recommendations regarding the prevention of COVID-19 transmission from the Minnesota Department of Health, and to use the Minnesota Conference’s Phased Re-Gathering Plan for Churches to guide our policies and procedures for operations within the church building. (You can find this plan at www.minnesotaumc.org/regatheringplan)
On November 19, the MN Conference of the UMC moved from the “orange phase” to the “red phase” of the Phased Re-Gathering Plan for Churches. Hennepin will also shift back to our version of the Red Phase, effective Monday, November 30, 2020.

Here is what to expect during the Red Phase (think “virtual”):

    1. No meetings or gatherings will be scheduled at the church building except as required for the creation of our virtual worship services.
    2. We will continue to gather virtually to celebrate worship together online each Sunday.
    3. All of our online offerings will continue. Groups and committees continue to meet virtually.
    4. Pastoral care will continue to be provided by phone or online using Zoom video conferencing.
    5. Off-site wedding, baptism, and funeral services can be conducted, though encouraged to be postponed. Weddings, baptisms, and funerals will not be held in the church building.
    6. Minimal staff will work on-site in order to maintain the building and continue basic operations such as receiving deliveries (8am–4pm weekdays). The majority of staff will work remotely.
    Thank you for your prayers and patience as we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic. If you have any questions regarding Hennepin’s reopening plan, please contact Joe Polach, Director of Facilities, by phone at 612.435.1335 or by email: joep@haumc.org
