Pastoral Letter from Bishop Rob Hirschfeld on Life and Worship During the COVID-19 Epidemic
March 24, 2020
Dear Clergy and Pastoral Leaders in the Episcopal Church of New Hampshire,
It is clear now that the congregations in the Episcopal Church of New Hampshire, like many of those throughout the world, will be unable to assemble in person for our usual solemn and joyous celebrations of Holy Week and Easter. Efforts to stem the pandemic of the potentially devastating COVID-19 require each of our households to practice physical distancing, to refrain from gathering in groups of any size and to remain at home.
