IMPORTANT MASK UPDATE FOR SUMC The PRG team has decided through Sunday, February 13, we will be requiring masks for worship. At that time, we will reassess our community conditions and perhaps reach a different decision. Masks will be available if you forget yours.

We know that transportation can be an issue for people in Scottsville and Esmont (and in all of the rural areas). There currently is a survey for the Regional Transit Vision for the Charlottesville Area, which includes Albemarle County, Fluvanna County, and Buckingham County.

You are invited to fill out the survey here SURVEY

Please note that the survey questions do not specifically address rural needs, but there are write-in boxes where you can make a note about the need to extend transportation services to rural areas.
