Staff and congregants should stay home and not attend service if they have any symptoms like fever, cough or shortness of breath. If you have been diagnosed with COVID-19 infection, you should not leave your home until approved by your medical provider or the health department. If you are on home quarantine for 14 days because you have been in contact with someone with COVID-19 infection, you should not attend in-person worship services.

Screening individuals before they enter place of worship will ensure that individuals who are attending worship service are currently healthy and not experiencing any COVID-19 related symptoms. Asking a few simple questions and taking the temperature of individuals entering is a great step in preventing the spread of COVID-19. Below is what should be asked prior to entering the worship facility:

Have you had close contact (within 6 feet for at least 10 minutes) in the last 14 days with someone diagnosed with COVID-19, or has any health department or health care provider been in contact with you and advised you to quarantine?

Have you experienced any of the following symptoms in the last 72 hours Fever Chills Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing New cough New loss of taste of smell

Have you been diagnosed with COVID-19?

If anyone responds yes to any of the above questions, has symptoms, or has been exposed to COVID-19 they should go home, stay away from other people, and call their doctor.

If you are a senior citizen or have an underlying health condition, you are at high risk for severe disease. Consider asking your pastor to video the service for you. This allows you to view the service from the safety of your home.
