June 7th will be the first Sunday we will be joining together again and we absolutely cannot wait! That’s right, Choice Baptist Church, in person, real-time. We will be holding two services, one at 9:00 am and the other at 10:45 am. As we are coming back together, we want to share with you the Social Distancing measures and precautions we are taking as a church in order to protect and emphasize the safety and health of you and your family.
Things Are Going To Look A Little Bit Different
Different does not mean less than. And just because things will be different, does not mean they have to be difficult or discouraging. In fact, all the changes we will be making at Choice will be for the better! And some of the changes have been in discussion over the past few years, like two services. (This season was God’s way of nudging us to step into His plan.) But some things are going to look a little different. Some of the social distancing measures we are taking include:
-six-foot aisles and six-foot rows between the chairs
-family sitting together
-friends with physical distance
-deep cleaning of our facilities
-air purifiers included in the gym
-hand sanitizing stations
-one way entrance and a one-way exit
-touch-free zone (hugging, handshaking, high-fiving)
-no coffee bar
-no bulletins
-shorter services with everyone together (no Nursery, Preschool or Children’s Church for now)
-dismissal by ushers with a touch-free offering
-outdoor fellowship (no hanging out in the gym or foyer)
Yep, things will look a little different for a while.
Moving Forward
The reality is that we are better together, stronger together, and made to be together. We are looking forward to seeing you all very soon. June 7th we will be starting a new series, “Favorite Bible Verses.” We would love to know yours! Let us know by emailing one of your favorite Bible verses and why it is one of your favorites to Choicebc@choicebaptist.org. Also, our Summer Small Groups will be starting the week of June 21st. This is a great way to stay connected and build long-lasting, Christ-centered relationships!
We hope to see you on June 7th, 9:00 am or 10:45 am but if you are uncomfortable, unready, unable, or unsure, join us online at 10:45 am!
Much love,
Pastor Tim
Choice Baptist Church
