September 17 Determination Letter

My Dear Kindred in Christ,

More of our counties are in the Yellow Zone this week, and more are at the Low end of Orange. This, plus a lovely weather forecast for Sunday, is good news for our worship planning! This week’s "county to watch” is Marshall, which has been hovering in the low-Orange zone for a few weeks now but may well make it into the Yellow Zone by the time Sunday rolls around. Marshall is a county with an excellent Positivity Rate at 2.32%, so when the numbers look like they’re going down, we can be fairly confident that this is an reasonable reflection of the state of the infections in the county.

Green - N/A
Green/Yellow - LaGrange
Yellow - Adams, Cass, Huntington, Kosciusko, LaPorte, Porter
Orange - Allen, Elkhart, Grant, Howard, Lake, Marshall, St. Joseph, Steuben
Red - N/A

Thank you as always for your efforts to find safe ways to support the spiritual lives of your congregations.

Blessings,

Terri
