The synod has revised its protocol for synod-sponsored or related events. A primary recommendation is common sense: Attendees, organizers and presenters should STAY HOME if they are feeling sick. The guidelines call for following CDC Community Levels for wearing masks, and reserves the right for event organizers to require masks to protect attendees regardless of the community level. Because synod events by nature bring people together from across a wide geographical area, proof of up-to-date vaccination is still required. Organizers are encouraged to provide online options for events and to provide adequate ventilation.
