Bishop Bickerton Responds Immediately to the Call for Houses of Worship to Open on Memorial Day Weekend

Bishop Bickerton Responds Immediately President Trump's Call for Houses of Worship to Reopen on Memorial Day Weekend

Today in his morning press conference, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that another 105 New Yorkers died yesterday from the COVID-19 virus.  Governor Ned Lamont announced yesterday that another 53 Connecticut residents died as well.  In the last seven days alone, nearly 1,500 people who live within close proximity of our churches have died from this deadly virus.

These facts alone reveal that we live in a region that cannot be compared with any other place in the country or world.  What others are attempting to do in other regions would only result in increased infection, hardship and death if we were to try to do the same.
