Updated Covid Protocols 4.03.2022

Ascension strives to be a welcoming and safe place for all. Here are the COVID-19 protocols in place:
​
  • The Church Council met and came to consensus on Tuesday, March 8th, that if the current trajectory remains favorable, we will lift some of our Covid protocols beginning on April 3 rd .
  • The transmission risk for our area has plateaued at “moderate”. You can find the current level at:

  • Masks are highly recommended, but not required. Please respect the need of others who choose to use a mask. People may choose to mask at any time. People with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19, following an immediate quarantine period, should wear a mask. If you are immunocompromised, learn more about how to protect yourself.
  • Please respect others in their need for physical distance. In general, try not to sit directly in front of or behind other worshipers. Please sit only in the pews where the cushions are in the down position.
  • Disposable masks are available on the table as you enter the building or on the table at the rear of the sanctuary.
  • We will not be passing the offering plates; plates are available on the table as you arrive or leave the sanctuary.
  • Please pick up communion elements as you arrive. Gluten-free wafers are available in a separate plastic bag. You will be directed as to the appropriate time to receive. Empty cups should be placed in the trash receptacle as you leave.
  • Furnace filters have been replaced in order to reduce the viral particles in the air. Occasionally, exterior doors may be cracked open to maximize the circulation of fresh air.

Will we continue to offer worship on Facebook Live?​

YES!
