As you’re likely aware\, the CDC and the local DC government updated its latest guidance for vaccinated individuals. Join us in person for service and worship at our 9 am and 11 am services. Please read the information below to know more about the details and restrictions for the two services. \n\n\nHere are a few things to keep in mind: \n***UPDATE: If you have been FULLY vaccinated\, you can be exempt from the quarantine requirements per DC Government regulations (if you travelled out of state). We kindly ask that you bring your vaccination card as proof. Thanks for your patience and understanding. \n1. Our services will be broadcasted by live stream for BOTH 9am and 11am services and a recording will be posted on our website on Sunday afternoons. \n2. For those going in-person\, BOTH our 9am and 11am services will be LIVE!!! However\, our 9am service will remain to have “half and half” seating and masks are still required. This means half of the room will accommodate those who prefer to sit with PHYSICAL DISTANCING and half of the room will accommodate those who prefer to sit with NO PHYSICAL DISTANCING. For the 11am service\, there will be NO PHYSICAL DISTANCING IN THE WHOLE SANCTUARY and masks are required. We are doing our best\, with the resources and capacity that we have\, to provide an environment that is safe and comfortable for everyone who’s attending our services. \n3. A temperature check and a brief screening will still be done before entering the building. \n4. Attendees will be guided to the appropriate exits immediately after the service has ended\, unless there is an event or meeting afterwards. \n5. Restrooms will be available for use with usual precautions taken. \n6. We STILL strongly suggest that anyone who is immunocompromised (UNLESS FULLY VACCINATED) refrain from attending service. \n7. If you are NOT FULLY VACCINATED\, we STILL strongly recommend practicing the 3 W’s (wear your mask\, watch your distance\, wash your hands) while indoors and during fellowship outdoors. \n9. Our shuttle from the Rhode Island Metro station is currently not in service. \n\n\nFAQs \nWhy do I have to register? So that we can stay within our preferred capacity\, also to provide contact tracing when necessary. \nWill there still be church online? There will be services provided by live stream and a recording posted after the 2nd service. \nWhat are the safety precautions? \n– Masks are required for all attendees\, gloves are available \n– Temperature checks and screening will be conducted by the Health Team\, questions include: \n 1. Have you experienced any symptoms in the past 14 days? \n 2. Have you been around anyone with symptoms in the past 14 days? \n 3. Have you traveled in the past 14 days? Where? (concern for hot spots) \nWhat is the process for contact tracing? Eventbrite will be the primary document used for contact tracing \nWill we continue to do live stream? A virtual option will be available.

As you’re likely aware\, the CDC and the local DC government updated its latest guidance for vaccinated individuals. Join us in person for service and worship at our 9 am and 11 am services. Please read the information below to know more about the details and restrictions for the two services. \n\n\nHere are a few things to keep in mind: \n***UPDATE: If you have been FULLY vaccinated\, you can be exempt from the quarantine requirements per DC Government regulations (if you travelled out of state). We kindly ask that you bring your vaccination card as proof. Thanks for your patience and understanding. \n1. Our services will be broadcasted by live stream for BOTH 9am and 11am services and a recording will be posted on our website on Sunday afternoons. \n2. For those going in-person\, BOTH our 9am and 11am services will be LIVE!!! However\, our 9am service will remain to have “half and half” seating and masks are still required. This means half of the room will accommodate those who prefer to sit with PHYSICAL DISTANCING and half of the room will accommodate those who prefer to sit with NO PHYSICAL DISTANCING. For the 11am service\, there will be NO PHYSICAL DISTANCING IN THE WHOLE SANCTUARY and masks are required. We are doing our best\, with the resources and capacity that we have\, to provide an environment that is safe and comfortable for everyone who’s attending our services. \n3. A temperature check and a brief screening will still be done before entering the building. \n4. Attendees will be guided to the appropriate exits immediately after the service has ended\, unless there is an event or meeting afterwards. \n5. Restrooms will be available for use with usual precautions taken. \n6. We STILL strongly suggest that anyone who is immunocompromised (UNLESS FULLY VACCINATED) refrain from attending service. \n7. If you are NOT FULLY VACCINATED\, we STILL strongly recommend practicing the 3 W’s (wear your mask\, watch your distance\, wash your hands) while indoors and during fellowship outdoors. \n9. Our shuttle from the Rhode Island Metro station is currently not in service. \n\n\nFAQs \nWhy do I have to register? So that we can stay within our preferred capacity\, also to provide contact tracing when necessary. \nWill there still be church online? There will be services provided by live stream and a recording posted after the 2nd service. \nWhat are the safety precautions? \n– Masks are required for all attendees\, gloves are available \n– Temperature checks and screening will be conducted by the Health Team\, questions include: \n 1. Have you experienced any symptoms in the past 14 days? \n 2. Have you been around anyone with symptoms in the past 14 days? \n 3. Have you traveled in the past 14 days? Where? (concern for hot spots) \nWhat is the process for contact tracing? Eventbrite will be the primary document used for contact tracing \nWill we continue to do live stream? A virtual option will be available.
