Please join us this Sunday (25 January 2026) at 11:00 AM for “Murmurations” by Rev. Barbara Jarrell.
Our service will be livestreamed on Facebook Live — we will not be meeting in person for this Sunday due to the severe winter weather.
We are moving our videos from Facebook to YouTube for long-term storage and viewing — you can find our worship videos on YouTube here.
We know that respiratory virus transmission is not an issue for this Sunday’s worship service because we will be online only. However, we will all rejoin the world after the winter ice melts next week and the viral risks will still be there. We want you to continue to be safe and know about these risks.
State-level COVID data can be found on the Louisiana Department of Health’s respiratory virus dashboard web page. The most sensitive metric to follow for current COVID trends is the “Laboratory Surveillance Data” link.
The seasonal flu virus has shown significant increase but is beginning to decline slowly from its peak numbers as of 17 January 2026. The RSV virus is starting to increase as of 17 January 2026. The COVID virus is persisting at low levels and not showing any increase as of 17 January 2026.
Masking and COVID vaccination are optional for attending in-person events at All Souls.
We encourage you to be vaccinated against COVID and to also have the most-current COVID booster shots. This provides greater protection to the individual and the church community.
Anyone who prefers wearing a mask is welcome to do so for in-person events and attending worship through livestream video is also an option where required for medical or schedule conflict reasons.
We will still have KN95 masks available in the foyer for anyone who needs one.
We continue to recommend that you stay home if you have any symptoms and that you keep up with all available vaccinations and boosters.
If you are recovering from COVID and have no symptoms, you should mask in public until you have tested negative twice in a 48 hour period.
We also ask that you go by the previous CDC guidelines of waiting at least 5 days past the onset of symptoms rather than the current 24 hour recommendation.
If you have symptoms for COVID or other respiratory illness, please stay home and take care of yourself.
Our January 2026 give-away-the-plate recipient is Volunteers for Youth Justice.
