Virtual church services in Macon

A lot has changed across the United States and the world since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Some changes are local to certain parts of the world while others are not. One challenge that many people in the United States and many around the globe have had to face is how they attend religious services.

Many have been forced to attend virtual services with most places of worship being closed as a result of coronavirus. This allows individuals to worship without having to leave their houses and risk contracting coronavirus. While some places of worship have begun doing socially distanced in-person services, many have not.

Will people choose the more convenient option of attending services virtually as opposed to worshipping in person even after the pandemic ends? Only time will tell.

Here are different places in Macon offering virtual services.
