The Church is open!!!
We are pleased to be sending you this announcement based on the new Executive Order that the Governor issued on Monday.
We are going to observe the following guidelines:
- Fully-Vaccinated people no longer have to wear face coverings. They can continue to do so by choice,
- Un-Vaccinated people – the church requests that you continue to follow CDC and NJ guidelines and wear face coverings.
- Individuals that are not feeling well or have COVID like symptoms, regardless of vaccination status, are asked to stay home.
- Social Distance requirements are no longer necessary.
- The reservation system will be ended.
- Hand sanitizing stations will still be available in the church and hall
- The church will attempt to provide “social distance” spacing for those that request it
- Communion Services will be a hybrid system.
- We will have our traditional communion service at the church rail. The communion steward will wear a glove and hand your bread to you.
- For those that want to have communion while seated in the pew, we will have the current self-contained elements.
- Church Hall / Coffee Hour
- The church hall will be open for use
- Coffee Hours can resume on June 6th.
- Please note that the church is looking for a coordinator and volunteer families
- Any families that use the church hall for personal use will be asked to perform a thorough cleaning after using the hall.
As a church family, we ask that everyone recognize that the Covid-19 virus is not gone and many of our youth do not have the opportunity to be vaccinated yet. We still need to maintain a level of vigilance so that we do our part to contain and control any possibility of a future spread.
