CORONAVIRUS UPDATE
Desert Foothills Lutheran Church
On-campus Worship during COVID-19
Traditional Service, 8:30 am
Contemporary Service, 10:30 am
We aim to operate Sunday Worship Services in a safe manner with a number of precautions in place. For those with a high risk to this virus (heart disease, lung disease, diabetes, obesity, or 65+ years old), please do not feel obligated to attend. God is with you. Jesus loves you and forgives you all your sins. We will continue to offer our online services.
It is important to tell our family and community as much as possible to prepare and educate everyone on what DFLC is doing and what we expect from the congregation to make on-campus worship services happen.
Here is what you can expect at DFLC for on-campus worship:
-
Prior to each service, a professional cleaning company sanitizes our facilities
-
The rooms will be as well ventilated as possible
-
Our HVAC systems have HEPA filters
-
On Sunday mornings all staff and volunteers will wear masks
-
Communion is sealed in individual containers
-
Seating is open. We presume most people can judge how far 6 feet is, if they would like to sit that far away from others
-
Hand Sanitizing stations are located at each entrance. You are encouraged to use them as you enter and exit
-
The Nursery has not been utilized, so it is closed until someone needs it; let us know if you need it
-
KidsTime is our children's ministry program on Sundays during the 10:30am service
Here is what we are asking from you as you attend worship at DFLC:
-
If you are not feeling well, running a fever, coughing, or sneezing, we ask that you please stay home and join online www.dflc.org/live-stream
-
We strongly encourage those with pre-existing health conditions, and those over 65, who have not been vaccinated to continue worshiping online
-
Masks: Our recommendation is that you wear a mask when in close proximity to others not in your household for extended periods of time, and of course always feel free to wear a mask if that is your preference
Thank you for your continued prayers and support, your patience and understanding, as we face this pandemic together – in faith rather than fear. If you have any questions, please contact us at Info@dflc.org or 480-585-8007.
Grace & Peace,
Pastor Mark
