Service Registration
In-person worship is reduced to 10 people
Taking effect Monday, April 19th, in-person worship will be reduced to 10 people. This means only our media staff and worship team along with the speaker will be scheduled to be in the sanctuary on Sundays.
Of course our regularly scheduled services will be broadcasted as per usual and we look to see you all online. All other online small groups will still be offered, please continue to make use of it.
Your faithful prayers and generous support are always appreciated and by God’s grace we’ll get through this together.
What We're Doing to Keep You Safe
Due to the rise of COVID-19 cases, the province of Ontario, including Durham has entered into stay-at-home-order and state of emergency. Under these new regulations, churches may have in-person attendance with a capacity limit of 15%.
APC has chosen to remain open for in-person attendance and is abiding by the highest standards in accordance with COVID-19 protocols. In addition to our implemented procedures, we would like to remind you of a few measures in place to keep your family safe.
Registration
We ask that upon registering for service whether online or in person that you provide the team with your first and last name, your contact information (email and phone number), and the same information for your family members and other guests. After each service, the registration list is updated identifying all members who attended the service, and those who registered but did not attend. This list is then saved and will be made available to the Public Health Medical team should contact tracing be required.
Physical Contact
We ask our members to refrain from any contact with people outside of your personal bubble. No fist bumping or elbow touching. Only greet with a wave from six feet away.
Continuous Deep Cleaning
During our service, our janitorial staff will be continually sanitizing high traffic areas of our building.
Social distance measures
We encourage you to remain only within your bubble while you are on the church premises. Continue to keep six feet away from other individuals.
If you have registered to attend an upcoming service and later come into close contact with anyone identified as COVID-19 positive, we ask that you stay home, cancel your registration, and self-assess for symptoms of the virus. Symptoms to monitor for include:
