Heath & Safety Reopening Guidelines for Sunday, August 9

The church’s Health & Safety Team is planning to invite people back into the sanctuary for worship beginning Sunday, August 9. There will be many new rules to follow in order to keep everyone safe:

• Enter only through the Fellowship Hall main door or front vestibule doors.

• Church doors will open 20 minutes before worship (30 min. for those with special needs). Please head to your seat when you enter. After worship, head outside to chat and fellowship.

• Masks must be worn inside by everyone age 5 and up. (Extras will be available.)

• Two of every three pew rows will be blocked off to maintain social distance. Sit only with household members.

• Only one person at a time in bathrooms. (Children must be accompanied by a parent.)

• A record of attendance will be kept in case any contact tracing is needed.

• There will be no offering plates or Care Cards passed out. Offerings and Care Cards can be placed in special boxes when you enter or leave the sanctuary.

• No one will enter the sanctuary for two days after worship.

The worship service will feel different, but there are infinite ways to worship God, so we look forward to experiencing some new ones. And the online broadcast will continue for folks at home; just have plenty of grace for us as we figure out the new technology. We can’t wait for some of us to be together in our holy space once again!
