The increasing infection rate in Beaufort County has caused us to revert back to a more cautious state.

The Gathering service held each Saturday at 5:30 p.m. and the 11 a.m. service held on Sunday will be live-streamed on Youtube. The Church of the Palms Youtube channel is at www.palmsumc.org/youtube.
Further restrictions are imposed on all groups and activities. No groups or gatherings of 10 or more are currently permitted and then only those deemed necessary provided.social distancing and use of masks, as appropriate is observed. Use of facility is only by requests received and approved in advance.
Groups, such as Scouts, may meet outside provided social distancing is observed.
