6/26/20 - Updated Guidance For Services...

For those fretting about “To Mask or Not to mask” and for those Not fretting...

Supply Baptist will strongly encourage masks per the Governors Order

BUT WE WILL NOT DEMAND or REQUIRE A Mask for Sunday’s and Wednesday’s.

We have received guidance for the N.C. Baptist Association’s Counsel that says:

Executive Order 147 amends Executive Order 141 in certain respects. Nothing in Executive Order 147 amended Section 4 of Executive Order 141 which exempts worship services from certain requirements as follows:

Section 4. Exemptions from This Executive Order. Worship, religious, and spiritual gatherings, funeral ceremonies, wedding ceremonies, and other activities constituting the exercise of First Amendment rights are exempt from all the requirements of this Executive Order and Executive Order Nos. 121 and 138, notwithstanding any other provision of this Executive Order or of Executive Order Nos. 121 and 138.

The undersigned strongly urges that entities and individuals engaging in these exempted activities follow the Recommendations to Promote Social Distancing and Reduce Transmission, avoid exceeding Emergency Maximum Occupancy in the places where they meet, and avoid holding Mass Gatherings.

We will encourage but not demand or require masks.



Yours In Christ,

Pastor Billy Rave
