Grace Mission - Episcopal Diocese of Florida

"We're in this together."

A message from Bishop Curry

Dear Ministry Partners and Volunteers,

There will be significant changes to our scheduled events beginning March 17th. As a result of the impact of the COVID-19 virus we have decided that the best course of action will be to close Grace Mission for an unspecified amount of time. We are suspending all meal services, donation drop off, programs and worship services. This was a difficult decision but due to the changing circumstances of this virus and the recommendations of the Governor’s office, CDC and the public health department as well as the Episcopal Diocese of Florida we feel it has become imperative that we close to protect all people from the potential of spreading this infectious virus.

Our staff will continue to work on a part-time basis and we will continue to monitor the unfolding directives and guidance from the appropriate agencies. We will provide information to our re-opening once we have clear direction on when it is safe to do so. If for any reason you feel symptomatic with COVID-19 please seek medical attention immediately. We are asking that if anyone who might test positive for COVID-19 and volunteered at Grace Mission to please contact us immediately. We would appreciate your cooperation. Communication is such an important part to prevent the spreading of this virus.

You can reach us by phone or email. We will be here a limited amount of time so if we do not get back with you immediately please understand and be patient. We thank you for your dedication to Grace Mission and know that we will need you once we reopen. This is an unprecedented event and we are thankful for your understanding and we will do everything we can to keep you informed. Please know that we are praying for all of our brothers and sisters in Christ. Please keep us in your prayers as well. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me.

Faithfully,

Rev. Amanda L. Nickles
