Sunday Details 5/17-5/23
1. Sunday Gathering at the Building!!!!!!!!— Praise the Lord for bringing us safely to this point in which we can once again gather in the building at 10:30am. Show up early so that we can get seated and begin on time. We will continue to make the service available on Zoom for those who need to stay home.
Please stay home if you or someone you have been near has a fever or cough.
We encourage those who are Age 65+, at risk, or potentially exposed to stay home.
Consider staying home if you are caring for someone who is at risk.
We also want to extend liberty to those who feel that it is safest and wisest to stay at home now.
2. Safety Details— Though it is impossible to completely eliminate risk, we have taken extensive measure to create a safe gathering. Please review these details so that you can be courteous toward others.
We’ve heightened our efforts to sanitize the building in preparation for Sunday.
Please eliminate all physical contact with others.
Upon arriving you will head straight to your seat in the auditorium.
Seating is spaced out to allow distancing between each family unit (Please remain flexible if we need to adjust seating in response to Sunday’s turnout.)
Masks are not required but will be made available upon requests. Masks will be worn by ushers and greeters.
Several hand sanitizer stations will be located around the building.
There will be no Sunday School, Praise Factory, or Nursery. However an unstaffed nursery and cry room will be made available for parents.
Offering and Lord’s Supper will be brought from seat to seat but not passed.
3. Zoom Details: Those who need to gather on Zoom will not be forgotten. We will miss you and are excited to gather again.
