• Entering Church Guidelines

  Now that we are in Phase 2 of our Reopening Plan, there are some guidelines you should be aware of.

  You are welcome to enter the building throught the office door.  Judy is working in the office and will be happy to help you.  Please do not enter the building through any other doors.  We must know who is in the building in case someone has been diagnosed with Covid-19.

  Upon entering through the office door you will find a sign-in sheet on the ledge in front of Judy's office.  Please sign in and help us keep track of everyone entering the building.  It is important that you only enter through the office door so that we know which rooms need to be sanitized.
