The first of the month I went by myself as Gary had to quarantine due to his colonoscopy the next day. It was a sweet feeling to enter into the Chapel after three months of no in-person meetings. Things were different with so few people in the Chapel. It was so quiet, it felt like everyone could hear your stomach rumbling from fasting. (It was like a singles ward at BYU. ) People all wore masks. There were no hymn books in the pews. Every other pew was blocked off to allow for social distancing. They also made adjustments in passing the sacrament in that only the deacon held the tray and the cups for the water were spaced apart on the tray and throw away in a white bowl that the deacon was carrying.
Today was the same although we had about half the number of people there. It was around 80 last time and I think Gary counted 30 or so this morning.

That's just about how it was for my ward. The way the Sacrement was past. They had a piece of bread inside individual cups. 1 Priest blessing The Sacrement. There were only 26 people in the Sacrement Meeting that I went to. Sometime during the following week AFTER going to church on June 14th there was a spike in Covid cases. So on June 20th they cancelled church for our area. And we do not know when we will have church again.
Jerry went two weeks ago. I am in no hurry to get back to Church. If you remember Dan and Debra Morris'son Michael Richardson, he is a Dallas Policeman, who has Covid. We also have one of our Plano Bishop's who has Covid. Scary times. You guys are brave!
