ALPLAUS UNITED
METHODIST CHURCH
We Know GOD Can Be Found Anywhere,
But We Feel Closer Here

We Are Open For Public Worship!! (Summer time at 9:30)!
Please be aware that we will be following the guidelines set out by NYS, the CDC and the UNYAC. Our building will only be open for worship - we will still be having meetings via zoom or outside. We will be “open” at about 25% capacity - up to 28 individual people. All people count, regardless of how many are from 1 household or what their age or size is. We will be checking temps, you will be asked about your personal health, attendance will be taken and logs kept. The kitchen door will be for emergency exit only.
The building will be clean and ready for your arrival. Folks will need to wear masks, and areas are marked off for keeping appropriate distance. There will be masks and hand sanitizer available. We will have an Usher who is familiar with the seating and spacing requirements and you will be directed where to sit (it might not be “your spot”). Foot traffic will be guided to be mindful of proper spacing upon entry and exit. The greeter and the Usher will coordinate with the Attendance Taker to assist folks with the use of the elevator. The only areas of the building open to the public will be the Sanctuary and the restrooms. The restrooms will have cleaning supplies at hand for use upon entry and exit.
That covers what you might expect - here is a list of what will be absent…
Passing of the Peace
Coffee Hour
Singing
Offertory and Doxology (there will be a plate for offerings on the way in/out)
Microphone passing for joys and concerns (please call, Email or text in advance)

We will record the service and post it on the website/ FaceBook for those who are unable to attend in person. If you have further questions, please reach out and ask! Pastor Kristi’s mobile number: 838-200-8601

PART-TIME PIANIST NEEDED FOR REMAINDER OF SEMESTER

The Alplaus United Methodist Church has a job opening for a pianist. (Organ also on site, but not a requirement to be able to play). The job involves playing for choir rehearsal during the week (day and time flexible to your schedule; music chosen by choir director) AND playing for worship service Sunday mornings with a short choir rehearsal before church starts.

Service usually involves 3 hymns, 1 choir anthem, a doxology, prelude, postlude, and sometimes choral responses. You would be responsible for choosing the prelude and postlude. Everything else is predetermined 10 days in advance so you can practice.

Pay is negotiable. If interested please call the church at 518-399-6000 or Barb Trask at 518-399-6454 and leave a message with your contact information.
