What You Can Expect…
Given how COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our world, we recognize that many have anxiety about visiting or returning to a church gathering. In response, we have modified our worship experience to comply with the latest county ordinances to provide a safe environment. As these safety measures do change the ministry environment, we will do our best to engage each other in a way that expresses God's love. The following is an overview of what you can expect when you enter our church home:
All Families Will Sit Together
Nursery services, children’s ministry, youth ministry, etc. will not be available to avoid contact between kids of different families. Instead, families will be asked to sit together during services in designated areas to create social distance. As an alternative to the main sanctuary, we will make available a limited number of private rooms that are equipped with remote monitors to view the service for families with small children.
If You're Sick, Please Stay Home
We ask that you stay home if you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms for the safety of those gathering; we are required to ask whether you have these symptoms when you enter. But, we invite you to send a prayer request through our website so that we may pray for you until you are healthy and able to come back to church, and we will gladly minister to you in person next time you visit.
Bring Your Own Beverages, Toys, Snacks
We ask that you bring your own beverages, snacks, toys, etc for yourself and your family since we will not be offering these services at this time (though we would love to).
Bring a Mask
You will be asked to wear a mask in public areas, but you can remove it once you are with your family in a location that is designated as providing social distance. Under these socially distanced conditions, we will be able to unmask to enjoy each others’ faces and worship in the sanctuary.
Follow the Posted Signage
We will ask that you follow our posted signage which will provide instructions regarding appropriate hygiene, social distancing, masks, and other prudent measures.
Be Aware that Capacity May Be Limited
If our gathering has reached its safe capacity for our building, we will ask that you visit us in the future and perhaps you join our service online.
Communion Will Be Kept Safe & Sanitary
Communion, when served, will be served by people wearing masks and gloves, or with individual pre-packaged elements provided at the entrance.
It’s going to be a different (and frankly weird) way to be the church together, but what is important is that we gather in love, experience God’s presence as we worship, pray for each other, and learn from His word of His great redemptive plans for us and our world. We appreciate your patience with us as we all learn to worship God, fellowship and minister in this new way. For nothing (not even COVID-19) can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:38-39).
