Yes, we will need you to register each week as we know there may be a weekend when you are unable to attend.

No. While we do recommend making a service “yours”; we understand that some weeks plans will vary, and we want you to attend whichever service best works for you that week. 

No. We will strictly follow the physical distancing mandates outlined by Alberta Health Services to ensure everyone’s safety. But there will be lots of smiles and waves and creative ways of showing our joy of seeing each other. 

If you or any member of your family have symptoms, such as: cough, fever, shortness of breath, runny nose, or sore throat; OR if you have high-risk medical conditions, we kindly request that you do not attend the service. 

• Maintain physical distancing of 2 meters at all times.  
• Sanitize or wash your hands frequently for at least 20 seconds with warm water and soap.  
• Cover coughs and sneezes and avoid touching your face  
• Wear a mask in public places where keeping 2 meters distancing is difficult. 

Alberta Health Services and the Alberta Government’s Guidance for Places of Worship highly recommends the use of masks or face coverings when there is singing during a live service. As our live service will having singing portions, the church recommends that you wear a facemask. If you do not have a facemask, they will be available.

Further, if you or your family members are intending to participate in the singing portion of the live experience, we highly recommend that everyone wears a facemask (children over the age of 2 included). 

Please note that masks are mandatory in all places of worship as of Nov 24, 2020.

Weekend Worship Experiences will be one hour in length to ensure we have adequate time to dismiss in a safe manner, minimize crowds and clean the auditorium so we can sanitize. During Services, high – touch areas will be regularly wiped with disinfectant. We will also be minimizing physical contact through measures such as not passing offering buckets and providing a virtual connect/prayer card option instead of paper.

We get that not everyone will be ready to come back right away and we respect each person’s right to make these decisions based on health concerns, age and personal comfort levels. Accordingly, we will continue to offer an online experience at 10:30 am every Sunday and look forward to seeing you in person when you are ready.

The buses will not run for the beginning stages of reopening as we look for ways to transport people in a safe manner while maintaining physical distancing regulations. We encourage you to ask friends or family members who do drive to join you at one of our live experiences so you can attend.
