Celebration September 13: Rain or Shine

lifechurch Uncategorized

We have enjoyed getting together outside over the summer (except two rainouts)! The forecast for this Sunday shows rain again, but we are prepared to go inside if it does. Here are the pertinent details: 

If there is no rain on Sunday we will set up outside. If there is rain we need to know in advance who will come indoors for Celebration because we need to make sure things are set up for social distancing and number of seats for families or groups, and to ensure that we are not above acceptable capacity.

Please email us if you will be attending indoors in the event of rain

  •  If you have at least one of the following symptoms: 
    • fever and/or new onset of cough or difficulty breathing.

    • chills, fatigue, headache, sore throat, runny nose, stuffy or congested nose, lost sense of taste or smell, hoarse voice, difficulty swelling, digestive issues (nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain), or for young children and infants: sluggishness or lack of appetite
