Church Reopening Plan

 

The church is gathering for in-person Sunday morning worship. There are some changes, so we want to outline what you can expect.

 
  • There is an in-person worship service at 10:30am. Select Sunday School classes are meeting. Contact the Church Office for information.

  • We also have a Sunday afternoon gathering at 2pm where masks are required and social distancing will be implemented. This gathering watches the recording of the 10:30am service, but it provides an opportunity to watch the service in community with others and safety precautions in place. Please contact the church office for more information on this service.
  • We are practicing social distancing in the sanctuary. We ask that you not sit in row that is marked off and please do not move any chairs. Household family members may sit together, but we ask that any non-household family members please practice social distancing.
  • The Centers for Disease Control and state of North Carolina recommends face coverings in public areas. We do ask that, if you are able, to please wear a face covering when not seated in the sanctuary. A face covering will be provided for you if you do not have one.
  • If you are elderly or immunocompromised, or not comfortable attending at this time, we encourage you to remain at home and watch the live stream.
  • If you are experiencing any fever or symptoms of illness, we ask that you stay at home so as to not put others at risk and contact your medical provider.
  • We are offering nursery for ages 0-5 and Children’s Church for K-5th grade. Each have their own guidelines and protocols for safety of both the children, parents, and volunteers.
  • There is no Sunday evening or Wednesday evening services until further notice.
  • Any congregating should occur outside and not in the lobby nor in the sanctuary. When you enter the building, please find a seat and be seated. A bulletin will be in your seat. At the conclusion of the service, we will dismiss by section and ask that you exit the building.
  • We will not be passing offering plates. Instead, we have an offering box in the lobby for you to place your offering. You may also give online anytime by clicking “Give” in the right corner.
  • For those who do not attend, the 10:30am service is live-streamed.
