Helpful Tips for Congregations Regarding the Upcoming Flu Season
Congregations can play a vital role in making sure that their members and local communities are well informed regarding best practices for what promises to be one of the more challenging flu seasons in recent memory. The government has made available information for meetings and religious gatherings and more generalized information for community and faith based organizations. Helpful information is available for congregations that operate shelters, soup kitchens, preschools, day care centers and a variety of other community based ministries. As people of faith we need to encourage everyone, especially those who are the most vulnerable people in our midst, to get both the regular flu shot and the H1N1 immunization.
If you have further questions, please contact our Disaster Response and Preparedness Coordinator, Ruth Doty, at ruth@lutherancongregationalservices.org.
