NOTICES
New Worship Service hours: Note that, going forward, services will be held at 7:30 am and 10 am. This is to provide more people with the opportunity to attend face to face as only fifty persons are allowed in the sanctuary at a given time. Please call the Church office to give your names and the time of the service you wish to attend by the latest Wednesday of each week. Remember to collect the authorization forms by Friday from the Office. For those who are unable to attend, you may view the 10 am service via Livestream or YouTube.

Please continue to do your part in observing the Covid-19 measures which have been announced. Let us continue to pray for the situation here in Jamaica and indeed the world and may we not forget that He has not given us a Spirit of fear, but of love and of power and a sound mind.
Blessings.

Protocol for Worship Services
In keeping with the decisions of the Government and the UCJCI COVID-19 Response Team, the following will be in place:
- There will be ONE Worship Service at 8:30 a.m.
- The distancing rule of one person per 40 sq. ft. with persons at least 6 feet apart will be in place. This allows for the sanctuary to hold fifty (50) persons. Consequently we ask that you call the office to let us know if you will be attending the worship service.
- Temperature checking and hand sanitizing will be done prior to you entering the sanctuary. There will be ONE Entrance Door.
- ALL persons are required to wear a mask. The mask should be worn at all times, before, during and after the Worship Service once on the compound.
- Choirs are not allowed.
- No gathering of persons is allowed at the entrance gate, in the church yard or anywhere on the compound.
- The Order for persons aged 65 and over has been relaxed for the Worship Service. Consequently, persons in this age group may attend. However, since this is still a vulnerable group, the encouragement given by the Government is that they stay home if they have access to streamed worship services.
