CAN I ATTEND IN PERSON?

Our campuses are open for modified in-person gatherings (including kids environments) in addition to online Church At Home.  As you’re ready to gather in-person, we’re ready!  If it’s wise for you to remain online, we’re thrilled to join you there.

Kids at Home:
Resources for families worshipping together at home will remain available and updated weekly.

WHAT TO EXPECT

ADULTS

Be wise.  If you have a fever or covid-like symptoms, if you have traveled to a hot spot or been in proximity to someone who is exhibiting symptoms or tested positive, we ask that you join us online for Church At Home. 

Be respectful.  How we gather matters as much or more than when we gather.  While with us, we ask that you respect one another’s physical distancing preferences by not assuming hugs or hand shakes are desired.  In this stage of gathering again, to serve others, we’d ask you wear a mask. 

WHAT DOES CHURCH LOOK LIKE?

Physical Distancing 

• A host will seat family units one row apart with three seats between families [6 feet apart]. 
• Restrooms will have no congregating – capacity will be limited to available stalls.  
• Services will be slightly reduced in length [50 minutes] with slightly less singing [3 songs].

Touch Free Environments 

• Open doors, digital bulletin, pre-packaged communion, offerings online or in giving boxes
• Our inside coffee area and water fountains will remain closed.  Feel free to bring a beverage, or enjoy coffee & donuts served outside!

Staff & Volunteer Screening  

• [First Phase] Staff & volunteers will undergo temperature checks.
• [First Phase] Staff & volunteers will wear masks. 

Additional Disinfecting

• Frequent disinfecting of all common areas [following CDC recommendations]
• Increased outdoor air circulation
• Hand sanitizer stations

Increased Caution Environment

• In order to serve those who would like to gather in-person but consider themselves higher risk or would appreciate extra precaution, one of our pastors will host a simulcast of our 8:30, 9:45 & 11am services in the Chapel at our Greeley Campus, separate from the main auditorium.  Masks will be required and singing will be limited.  Please use the parking and entrance on the north central side of the building.

KIDS

Online and In-Person. As we bring back in-person gKids experiences, know we will continue to produce and make available our Kids At Home content. Our little ones are so important to the vision of Generations, and we will do our best to meet you wherever you choose to participate!

WHAT DO GKIDS EXPERIENCES LOOK LIKE?

Check-In 

• Come in through the kids’ entrance on the south side of the building and you will see signs 6 feet apart that will let you know where to line up.
• Wait at the “Stop Sign” until a gKids volunteer invites you up to check-in after disinfecting the station.
• Kids will get their temperature checked prior to entering the hallway
• 1 Parent is allowed to walk them to their class to limit traffic.
• The parent escorting the child will be required to wear a mask in the hallway and have their temperature checked as well.
• In order to keep the traffic flow in one direction, we ask that parents exit to the north (left), instead of moving back through the check-in station area.

Classrooms

• Prior to entering the classroom, kids will use hand sanitizer.
• Classroom sizes have been lowered based on square-footage of the room (so arrive early!!).
• Large Group times will be socially distanced.
• All snacks are individually packaged.

Check-Out

• Just one parent will be allowed into the hallway to pick-up.
• After kids have been checked out, all touched surfaces are disinfected.
• GKids Staff will have worn their mask the entire experience and had their temperature checked.

This is new for everyone, and we realize there’s some learning and adapting for each of us to do along the way. If you have questions that haven’t been addressed here, please reach out!
