In an abc 36 news update...a church in jessamine county is back up and running after a surge of coronavirus cases after some 17 parishioners tested positive for the virus.

Instead of inside the church building...clays mill baptist has a tent set-up and there's an f-m transmitter for drive-up services.

At the beginning of june the church was strictly streaming online after the outbreak.

Pastor jeff fugate says all of the members who got the virus have recovered and he doesn't believe anyone else in the congregation has it at this time.

He says he watches kentucky's covid-19 case numbers closely and wants to do his best to give his parishioners options for their safety.

"jeff fugate, pastor: i'm so thankful our church has been strong through this.

And they were so excited to be back in church.

We're just glad to be together again.

We sorta went back in time to the old days of tent meetings so we're enjoying it."

Pastor fugate expects the tent- style services to be offered through the end of july.
