COVID-19 information

February 10, 2023


Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.



The widespread availability of vaccines and improved treatments for COVID have decreased the intensity of the majority of COVID cases and reduced the strain on the healthcare system. As the national COVID climate shifts away from emergency measures toward endemic management, we are optimistic that it is time for us to do the same within our Order. 


Note that these changes are NOT because COVID is no longer a threat. COVID remains highly contagious and the long-term effects, including but not limited to “long COVID,” remain poorly understood. As of the date of this policy change, the CDC reports a seven-day average of more than 40,000 new cases and just under 500 deaths per day; due to the widespread availability of home testing, many new cases are not captured in this data.


New! Effective immediately:



As always:


Love is the law, love under will.
