We're reopening Ives Chapel UMC for in-person worship!
After going virtual only again in January 2022 in response to the surge in covid cases in our area, we are finally ready to offer worship in the sanctuary again starting today, Feb 13, 2022. We will continue offering our services online for those who are unable or not ready to return to the sanctuary to join us.
We want to abide by the first of John Wesley’s Three General Rules--do no harm--in all of our plans. Wesley, the founder of Methodism, sought to live by three rules that sound simple in principle but can be challenging in practice. They are to do no harm, do good and stay in love with God.

Here are some of the things we'll be doing:
- Please wear your face masks.
- We're asking you to maintain social distancing.
- Instead of passing printed bulletins, you will follow the service through information displayed on our video screen.
- An offering plate will be on a stand at the back of the sanctuary and we ask that you leave your offerings before or after the service.
