Mask Policy Update
Archwood will, following CDC recommendations, go to a mask optional policy for in-person worship. You may be unmasked providing you feel well and are symptom free. Masks will still be offered for those who prefer to use them, and we respectfully ask that you consider zoom-attendance if you are unwell. Please know that this policy is fluid – meaning that we will resume masking if so advised, or if local rates warrant it.

Seeds of Literacy seeks volunteers
Seeds of Literacy, an organization which pairs tutors with people needing to pass their GED tests, is looking for evening volunteers. (Their evening sessions run from 6:00 to 8:00.)
There are volunteer options at both of their brick-and-mortar sites (one on the east side and one on the west) and there is also a virtual option (via Zoom), meaning you don't need to leave your home to tutor -- an especially attractive choice in bad weather! You don't have to be a genius in any subject to tutor -- you just need to be committed and reliable. If you're interested in volunteering -- or just getting more info --you can e-mail SOL at christinelee@seedsofliteracy.org.
