How has COVID-19 affected your faith or your beliefs?
Interviewee 0:05
Well, COVID-19 hasn't really, hasn't affected my faith at all. I feel like it's affected the social aspect of it but I've been able to adapt with everything that's going on.
Interviewer 0:20
Okay. So, is your religious community still gathering currently?
Interviewee 0:26
No. So, the church that my family goes to, they're having live streams on Sundays. So, they, they have like two different live streams, one in English and one Spanish, and it hasn't really affected, like, my participation, since it's, like, really easy to get to, like, it's available on YouTube. And they have like, a live chat feature that not that many people use, because I mean, like, you're not even really supposed to be talking, like, while the service is going on. But um, yeah, so they have live streams, and the church is closed, but they tell us that the chapel is open during, like, certain days and times for like private prayers but I haven't been to that.
Interviewer 1:14
Okay. So you. so you would say that COVID hasn't, hasn't really impacted your participation at all?
Interviewee 1:22
No, not at all.
Interviewer 1:23
Not except, like the physical but you're still there, you know, virtually?
Interviewee 1:27
Yeah.
Interviewer 1:27
Okay. That's great. My last question is: is your religious community supplying or engaging any kind of community service in the attempt to help alleviate issues caused by the pandemic? If so, what, what are those efforts?
Interviewee 1:47
They've been mainly just trying to, like, supply for donations and like food for those who need it. But they mainly just ask for, like, donations, like, online or in mail, like, through mail. But that's pretty much it for that.
Interviewer 2:08
Okay, great, great, thank you. These are all the questions I had, but thank you so much for your time.
Interviewee 2:13
