Dear fellow members and friends,
We are happy to share the news so many of you have been waiting for.
We will be resuming in-person gatherings!!!
We now have a schedule for when we will be back in-person for Sunday School, Children’s Room, Sunday church services, and Wednesday testimony meetings.
Sunday School
Sunday School leads the way. We are pleased that beginning Sunday, March 21, and continuing for all Sundays after that date, Sunday School will offer in-person classes at 10:30 a.m. with simultaneous Zoom capability as well (coordinate with sundayschool@thirdchurchdallas.org for availability). Co-superintendents Nadine Givens and Greg McLane will provide communication to parents regarding safety guidelines for students and parents.
Children’s Room
The Children’s Room upstairs will reopen this Sunday, March 21 for infants and toddlers. Jane McLane, Children’s Room Chair, will be communicating with parents.
Sunday Church Services
Beginning Easter Sunday, April 4, church services resume in-person in the church auditorium as well as online using Zoom and over the phone. This blended format will continue for all Sundays going forward after April 4.
Wednesday Testimony Meetings
Beginning Wednesday, April 7 and continuing for all Wednesdays after that date, testimony meetings will be both in-person in the church auditorium as well as over Zoom and on the phone.
Guidelines for attendees at services and meetings in the auditorium
- Face coverings are required for everyone while in the building and on church grounds.
- Maintain physical distancing at all times.
- Please enter only through the door into the lobby on the parking lot / courtyard side.
- Some rows will be blocked off to facilitate physical distancing. Greeters will assist in directing to available seats.
- If you aren’t feeling well, please attend the online rather than in-person services.

Much Gratitude
Much gratitude to everyone for supporting all of our church activities as we made adjustments over the last year to demonstrate how much we love and care for everyone in our church and our community.
We look forward to seeing you in person at Sunday School and church services. If you can’t come in person, we hope you continue to come virtually by Zoom or phone. We have made major changes in our audio system to make the Zoom/phone experience sound almost as good as if you are in the auditorium.
