Photo: RNZWhile church communities are eager to come together again to worship, church leaders in Dunedin are adopting a safety-first approach. After looking over the new regulations for Alert Level 2, and in discussion with other cathedrals around the country, it was decided to continue with a pre-recorded service broadcast this coming Sunday. ‘‘It gives us another week to make sure everyone is safe and happy with following the regulations,’’ Dr Curtis said. St Paul’s Cathedral would have to adjust its approach to accommodate the maximum gathering of 50 people, as Sunday services were usually larger. The situation would be reviewed on a week-by-week basis and it was envisaged church services would resume while at Level 2.
