Dear Friends, Since late December there has been no in-person worship at Hockessin Friends Meeting because of the surge in COVID transmission. Recently the positivity rate has declined to a point where the Ad Hoc Committee for Re-opening decided that it is safe to resume in-person worship. Therefore, on February 20 and 27, HFM will be open for in-person worship. HFM will still require that members and attenders aged two and older wear masks when inside the meetinghouse and other HFM buildings. All HEPA filters will be operating. Meeting for worship will continue to be available via Zoom format. On March 6 both business meeting and meeting for worship will take place via Zoom format only.
Friends may participate in our Zoom meetings for worship First Days at 10:45 a.m. Our Zoom Meeting ID is 863-908-9345; the Password is 1. Our link for Zoom Meetings for Worship and Meeting for Business is https://zoom.us/j/8639089345?pwd=ak1XbmprdFBUQnRZOWszWU91VHdyUT09. Friends may also join the Zoom meetings by calling: 1-301-715-8592 and then entering 863-908-9345# (and # to skip participant ID) and then the password 1#.
