COVID-19 UPDATES:
Last updated on November 12, 2020:
Our goal is to safely gather in person, as often as possible, with open and clear communication to our people.
We know our members are wise and will make the best decisions for themselves and their families regarding their church attendance. Therefore, we will maintain open communication about any potential risks we are aware of, and we will allow our members to make decisions based on that information. For those who are unable or uncomfortable with attending our in-person gatherings, we will continue to stream our services online.
Below you will find a list of frequently asked questions regarding our response:
How will you handle positive COVID-19 cases in our church?
When we are aware of a positive case that impacts our church, we will notify the members and regular attenders of our church as soon as possible. The person with the positive case, as well as those who were in close contact with them, will be asked to refrain from in-person services for 14 days following the most recent exposure. The entire church building will be sanitized according to our Pandemic Response Policy and services will continue as scheduled. The rest of the church is welcome to continue gathering at their discretion.
Do I need to contact the church if I have tested positive for COVID-19?
In this situation, our local Health Department will usually contact us, but we ask that you let us know as well. This will allow us to pray for you and check in on a regular basis to make sure your needs are met. This will also allow us to notify the church of a positive case in a timely manner. However, we will never disclose your name to others in the church unless you ask us to.
What if I have been exposed to a person outside our church who has tested positive for COVID-19?
We ask that you please stay home for 14 days following your most recent interaction with them. We would appreciate it if you contacted someone in leadership so that we can pray for you and check in with you on a regular basis to make sure your needs are being met.
