The Church and Stay at Home 2.0: Following the Good Shepherd and the Path Ahead

Dear Clergy and Lay Leaders, 

As the state of New Hampshire begins to walk towards a gradual "re-opening" of the state - for business, employment, and services - while maintaining important public health measures to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus, I am sharing this document to provide guidance about how we might think about "re-opening" our churches. 

Following The Good Shepherd On The Path Ahead 

As always, the diocesan staff and I welcome your questions and concerns and we stand ready to pray, consult and partner with you now and in the days ahead. 

Yours in the Risen Christ,

+Rob

The. Rt. Rev. A. Robert Hirschfeld

Bishop of New Hampshire
