How many people will be able to attend the service?

Beginning with June 27^th members will be able to pre-register for 8:00a or 10:00a service.  As more people are vaccinated and Covid numbers improve and St. Louis County relax more restrictions, this number will be increased.

What is the cut-off for pre-registration?

Registration will close when the maximum number that can attend a worship service is reached.
