For several months the New Castle County COVID community level has ranged from “low” to “high,” often changing on a weekly basis. Hockessin Friends Meeting will continue in-person worship, but we will base COVID protocols (masking, HEPA filters, etc.) on the Community level of the week. When the level is “high,” Meeting participants should be prepared to wear masks and hear the white noise of the HEPA filters.

The COVID Community Level for New Castle County is now high. Therefore, beginning on May 22, Hockessin Friends Meeting will hold in-person worship in front of the meetinghouse. In the event of inclement weather, in-door in-person worship will be held, but all individuals will be expected to wear masks, social distancing will be practiced, and HEPA filters will operate.

At the conclusion of worship, coffee and limited food items will be available for outdoor consumption. Social distancing will be expected during worship and social hours.
