Facial covering policy:
As a church, we will continue to follow mask wearing guidelines set by our governing authorities. If at any point mask wearing is lifted and/or made optional, we will honor each family’s decision on whether or not their child should wear one. Kids younger than 10 years of age will not be required to wear a mask.
Touch-less Check-In Procedure:
Check-in will resume on Sunday, August 23rd. The check-in station (located near the nursery) will be staffed with a kids ministry leader who will enter your child’s information into the system and register new families. If you arrive after 11:15, please escort your child directly to the kids service.
Other Kids Ministries:
In regards to Sunday school, Royal Rangers and Girls Ministries, we will communicate the start date for these ministries.
