The choice of when to return to the church premises is entirely yours. Should you not be ready or able to (due to being in a high risk category) the service will be live streamed via YouTube, for your participation.

 

  • On-site Church services will be from 11:00am until 12:30pm.

  • Masks are required; gloves are optional – the church will provide masks in the event you forget to wear one. There are multiple hand sanitizing stations set up throughout the building, but you are also encouraged to bring your own sanitizer.

  • Prayer & Testimony Segment: We will not be going around with microphones for testimonies and prayer requests.  Instead, we may ask for those who want to share a testimony or prayer request to come forward to the floor microphone in the front of the sanctuary to speak.  We will only have time for a few individuals, and the testimony/request can be no longer than 30 seconds.  Everyone will remain in the pews and kneel where possible when the prayer is given.

  • Tithes & Offerings will not be collected by the deacons.  Instead, everyone will be asked to place their envelopes in the gift boxes located on the back wall of the sanctuary upon exiting.  We ask that you place any loose cash or coins for offerings in an envelope.
