REVISED Guidelines for in-person worship
As we continue holding in-person worship services, we want to do so with wisdom. Honoring God means honoring each other by doing our best to ensure the health and safety of our Woodland family and friends. We ask that you please familiarize yourself with the below guidelines as we reenter our sanctuary as safely as possible.
If you are sick or showing any symptoms associated with COVID-19 infection, please stay home. Also, if you have preexisting health conditions that make you especially susceptible to COVID-19, we ask that you continue to join our worship services virtually by live stream or conference call.
If you choose to join us in the sanctuary for worship, please note the following.
- Worship service will begin at 10:30 a.m. Individuals may begin entering the sanctuary no earlier than 10:00 a.m.
- All worshippers must wear a face mask during the entire service. If you do not have a mask and would like one, please ask an usher and we will get one for you.
Following these guidelines will help ensure we keep our family and friends safe.

RESEARCH AND RESOURCES
COVID-19 and Vaccinations
There is a great deal of information and misinformation circulating about the novel coronavirus and the new vaccines that are being distributed. We want to provide evidence-based resources to help you make the best decisions for you and your family as we look forward to the end of the current pandemic. In an effort to promote wellness in black and other communities of color, the resources below take into account the widespread mistrust of science and medicine present in communities of color as a result of decades of harm done to racial minorities in the name of science.
The information below is presented solely for your information. Woodland Christian Church does not unequivocally endorse or validate any of the perspectives shared by these experts.
