We are so excited to be able to start the process of planning on re-opening our church services in person. We are eager to reconnect with you! Please know that everything we do, we do unto the Glory of God and ask that you come with an expectation that Jesus will meet with us just as He promised, when two or more are gathered in His name, He is there!
We also want you to know that we are taking precautions to ensure you have a worship experience that will minimize the exposure you could have to COVID-19. However, please know we are a house of worship, not a medical facility, and we cannot guarantee you will not become exposed or contract COVID-19 by attending a service even if you follow our guidelines for our services. These guidelines are meant to ensure we use wisdom knowing that COVID-19 does not discriminate and is highly contageous. However, we cannot assume that by going to church you are immune to COVID-19. The safest way to attend church is by doing so online, in your home. However, we understand this is not feasible for everyone and many need to gather together in God's house to worship, and we want to ensure you have that ability to do so.
Here are a few things to expect when you come back to church.
1. Children going into kids church will have their temps taken.
2. Please bring a facemask : ) It is required to wear a facemask into the church service and leaving the church service. However, you may remove your mask once you are in your seat with your family. If you do not have a facemask, we will provide one for you at the door. Wearing a facemask can reduce the spread of COVID-19 by as much as 75%. It is a simple and effective way to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, you also can get some really cool looking ones as well : )
3. Although, it will be very hard, we ask that you refrain from physical contact (hugging, shaking hands, etc); as we will need to practice social distancing initially until the case rates decrease in our community. Air hugs and fist bumps are completely acceptable!
4. We will not pass an offering plate during the service. We will have a plate located at the back of the service when you leave that you can leave your tithe or offering in.
