Returning to Worship
CHURCHWIDE OFFICE
In accordance with the South Australian government encouragement to work from home if possible, the LCA/NZ Churchwide physical office is closed. Staff are working from home and can be contacted as usual via email or phone. Subject to government directives or advice, we plan to re-open the physical office on Monday 7 December.
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN CONGREGATIONS
South Australian congregations should contact the SA-NT District office or visit the website for updates about COVID-related government directives.
RETURNING TO WORSHIP
Many congregations are now able to return to worship in their church buildings in accordance with the spacing restrictions and health regulations outlined by their respective jurisdictions. As these vary between the states and territories, congregation leaders should contact their District office for current information about returning to worship.
Note that SA–NT District and Victoria–Tasmania District have the latest information for their relevant jurisdictions on their websites.
