**Reopening! August 16, 2020 at 10AM**
Greetings Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The Pastors and Elders of River Community Church are excited to announce some upcoming dates for you to mark on your calendars.
On August 16 at 10am we will open our doors to a safe, social distanced, in person service. We will have volunteers present to help maintain all CDC and NYS guidelines while making it a stress free experience. We will also be broadcasting live on Facebook for those who feel safer worshipping from home.
The following are some of the guidelines we will be using to worship inside:
• Everyone will need to enter the building using the carport doors. ALL other doors will be locked.
• Your temperature will be taken prior to entering the church building
• Masks will be required for anyone over the age of two who enters the building and can only be removed after you are seated. Masks must be worn anytime you are not seated or when you sing.
• You will be seated by volunteers. You can only sit with people from your own household.
• Families should plan to keep their children with them during the worship service; worship activity bags will continue to be provided for children to use during the service.
• After service the congregation will be dismissed by rows and will exit out the doors at the front of the sanctuary. Volunteers will be present to help with this process.
• Parking on the side of the building facing the main road will be reserved handicap parking for those needed assistance getting to their cars.
• The bathrooms in the lobby will be open for use and volunteers will making sure social distancing is maintained as well as sanitizing the bathrooms after use.
Please be kind and respectful of our volunteers. They are here to serve God, church and do their best to keep you safe.
The Annual Church Meeting has been rescheduled for Sunday, August 23rd immediately following worship service. Meeting packets remain available Monday through Thursday at the church office and Sunday mornings before/after service.
We would like to thank all of you for your patience and understanding as well traverse these uncertain and rapidly changing times. We look forward to worshipping with you in person again.
In Christ’s Service
