**Please read through the following guidelines before joining us for worship.**

-We can only seat 82 people or 20 households per service.  This includes the children and nursery attendants.
-Face masks and/or face coverings will be required; please see our guidelines here.
-We will continue to record and upload our service for those who are unable to or uncomfortable attending in person.
-All attendees are asked to park in the sanctuary parking lot.
-All attendees will enter and exit via the sanctuary entrance.
-All attendees must maintain a social distance of at least 6 feet from members of other households at all times.
-Persons who have any symptoms of COVID-19 (coughing, fever, shortness of breath) will not be permitted to attend in person services.
​
-Those who wish to attend are asked to RSVP by the Thursday prior (please see the contact form below).
-If we reach our maximum capacity of either 82 people or 20 households, then those who attempted to RSVP but were unable to fit will be given priority at the next service.
-If people show up on Sunday morning without having RSVPed (either visitors or members), they will be welcomed to join us if there is space and after they have signed in with their contact information.
-Our church sign will invite visitors to RSVP prior to attending via email.

-Crayons and colouring pages will not be provided for children.  Parents and/or caregivers are welcomed to bring their own.
-Fellowship of up to 50 indoor or 100 outdoor are allowed following the service (safe social distance guidelines must still be followed).   We can congregate outside after the service so long as a safe social distance of 2m is maintained.  Also, if you are going to stop to chat please move well beyond the doors & entry way so that others may pass by in a safe manner.​
