God is safe, the virus not.

I am starving for fellowship. These are grand ideas. 

When Daniel was taken to babylon there was no synagogues to Gather but he showed how to live Godly by praying n fasting.

Indeed, He prayed three times a day in his private room. :)

I feel I really need church but with covid surging.. Im not sure if it's best right now.

Depends on where you live and what steps your church is taking to keep people safe.  I went last Sunday. Sat by myself. Wore my mask. Stay away from people. Then left as soon as it was over.   No hugging, no hand shaking. No passing the offering just drop it in the plate by the door. No passing of papers.  Also how many people are there? We only had a small number at my church. I would avoid crowded places.

We have not been to church since early march. Neither one of us felt safe in going. My church shut down, then reopened cautiously, encouraging those at risk to view online only. Now my pastor, his family, and a dozen or so others are sick with coronavirus.

We went to Church last week (with little kids). Going to Church could be safe depending on lot of factors. If you are not comfortable, just stick with online services. It is nothing like being there physically, but at least you get something. Lot of people have suggested small house meetings. Personally, I see that riskier than going to a Church. When you meet within house, it is going to be much crammed up, no social distancing, chances of contact much higher. Our Church was very well organized. Chairs were spaced out. We had sign up and we had 2 services. And capacity was limited. Hand sanitizers were available. Everyone should wear mask. No fellowship. People allowed inside Church only 10 mins before service (stay in car until then). Communion offered in to-go style. Offering box kept at one corner and no passing around. No kids class and everyone stays with parents. No running around of kids since people are inside only for the service. They also gave crayons and stuff like that for all the kids to keep them occupied. I felt it was very well organized and I felt safe. Much better than going inside someone else's house.

Sorry to hear that. I’ll add your pastor and others to my prayers.
