Dear Friends, Because of declines in COVID rates and recent changes in CDC guidelines, the Hockessin Friends Ad Hoc Committee for Re-Opening decided to change several HFM guidelines.
On March 13, the HFM meetinghouse will be open for in-person worship.  Masks will be optional for vaccinated individuals.  Unvaccinated individuals will be expected to wear masks.  HEPA filters will operate and Zoom format will be available.  At the end of worship, coffee and limited food items will be available.  Please observe social distancing during worship and social hours.  Please also note that daylight savings time will start on March 13.
On March 20, both the Annual Corporation Meeting and Meeting for Worship will take place via Zoom format only.  The Committee believes that retaining the previously announced Zoom format for both meetings will avoid unnecessary confusion.
On March 27, Meeting for Worship will take place both in-person at the meetinghouse and via Zoom.  All March 13 policies will be followed.
On April 3, Meeting for Business will be held in-person and will NOT be available via ZoomMeeting for Worship will be available both in-person and via Zoom.

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.
