Is being at church important to you? With many services cancelled because of virus restrictions, it can be challenging to find a church that is open. Some Christians are watching services on television, zoom or similar sources.
All those solutions are better than nothing but, personally, I don't think anything can truly take the place of getting together-in person, with your church family and worshipping our Lord.
In Ontario at least, church's are still allowed to be open if certain guidelines are followed. Others are not so fortunate. They are faced with having to decide between staying home and disobeying Provincial restrictions that may result in having to paying hefty fines.
When I was young (many decades ago) it was taken for granted the majority of people would be in church on Sunday. Sunday was an important and sacred day even if you didn't attend services. Salespeople wouldn't phone or knock on your door, stores were closed and children were instructed to play quietly.
Now, Sunday is just another day of the weekend and those who do go church are considered to be religious fanatics or out of touch with the 'real' world.
Sunday is the day I set aside to go to church and as long as I am able, that is what I will do.
