​Step by step, Christ Presbyterian Church is taking a thoughtful approach towards being able to worship and fellowship together while being mindful of COVID-19.
We are back in the sanctuary! Worship will still be available via Zoom and Facebook Live for those prefer to worship from home.

As we transition into worship in the sanctuary, the following protocols will be in place:
Regarding Masks:
  • Indoors: wear your mask (worn over mouth and nose) and distance
  • Outdoors:  use masks thoughtfully (e.g., in food lines, in crowds) and distance

Regarding Capacity and Access:
  • We will be open at full capacity (Please note: While the CDC says full-capacity worship indoors is safe for masked, vaccinated people, it lists indoor worship at full capacity as “least safe” for masked, unvaccinated persons.
  • Worship will continue to be streamed online.

Regarding Seating:
  • Chairs will be in rows, with greater distance between rows than in pre-pandemic set-ups
  • We will remain masked throughout worship and keep a friendly distance from others not in our household or “bubble”
  • Offering plates will passed, per tradition; online giving still available and recommended
  • No RSVPs needed! :)
​
Regarding Singing: 
  • Singing is allowed, with masks (covering both nose and mouth)
  • Hymns and other worship music will shortened to minimize exposure

Other gatherings:
  • Session, Diaconate, youth (with parent permission), ministry teams, Sunday school classes, and other church groups may continue to meet via Zoom, if preferred
  • Groups choosing to meet in person should provide a hybrid solution (in-person and on-line) to meet attendee preferences
  • Small on-site groups (6 or fewer) can meet in the Koinonia Room
  • Larger on-site groups should use the sanctuary, chapel, or outdoors
