CHBC Re-Gathering July 19, 2020

CHBC,
We continue to monitor all that is taking place in our city and state regarding COVID-19 and any affects that has on gathering for worship. Please continue to use the RSVP method as this helps us prepare for ETC, and any necessary overflow seating. Please also continue using the recommended precautions of staying home if you have symptoms, covering coughs/sneezes, washing hands frequently, and maintaining a physical distance of six feet, and/or wearing a mask if you desire. We look forward to our church gathering for worship on Sunday, and for your ability to join either in person or on Facebook Live at 10 AM for English-speaking worship, and 12 PM for Spanish-speaking worship.

Please see the rest of this email to begin the process of RSVP for AM Worship for July 19, 2020.


Sunday Re-Gathering
Current worship service times for AM Worship are 10 AM for English-speaking worship, and 12 PM for Spanish-speaking worship
CHBC is still honoring physical distancing recommendations
This means we are only being seated on every other row of the Worship Center (rows should be clearly marked)
We are allowing a three-chair gap between family units (a family unit is made up those who live in the same home)
We remind those who are 65 years of age and older, or who are in a higher-risk category to know that our health agencies are still discouraging being in crowded public spaces
Wearing a mask is not required, but is encouraged in crowds where physical distancing is not possible. If you feel you need it for your safety and the safety of others please feel comfortable worshipping with us while wearing a mask
We are sanitizing prior to each gathering
Please be aware that some have reason to be more cautious than others, therefore respect people’s space and convictions
We are using RSVP so that we can have enough seating in the Worship Center and in our overflow rooms, as well as to prepare properly for the number of children who will be in ETC (Extended Teaching Care for 3 years of age and younger)
Please use this link to RSVP: CHBC Re-Gathering for July 19, 2020
If you forget to RSVP you are still welcome to attend, or to bring a guest, just be aware that those who arrive late may need to be seated in overflow.

Update for CHBC Re: OKC's Mask Ordinance

main image

Dear CHBC Family and Friends,

Yesterday in a special session of the OKC City Council there was a vote to impose a Mask Ordinance for Oklahoma City. You can read the official ordinance here: OKC Mask Ordinance. What is important to note for worship tomorrow is the ordinance includes this exception: “persons attending any indoor religious service or ceremony as long as all persons who do not live in the same household are social distancing from one another, meaning not less than 6 feet apart.”

If you are attending worship tomorrow please enter and exit the building spacing yourself appropriately, and remember that our seating is every other row, and persons not attending from the same household should leave a 3-chair gap between themselves or their household, and the next person or household.  While walking or waiting to enter please allow a distance of six feet between yourselves and others.  Please use your own personal choice and discretion in whether you wear a mask to worship. We want all worshippers to feel comfortable attending under their own convictions of whether or not to utilize a mask or face shield. You may also choose to worship with us online at the CHBC Facebook page.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate what are our best practices for Sunday and Wednesday worship and activities. Thank you for your prayer and continued support and involvement as we navigate these difficult situations.

Mark D. DeMoss, Senior Pastor
