There are simple measures you can take to protect yourself and help us reduce the spread of Coronavirus in our community. 

At church: 

• Practice fist and elbow bumps instead of hugging or shaking hands.
• Take advantage of our church sanitizing stations, particularly after sneezing, coughing and touching regularly used surfaces. We encourage members and guests to bring their own hand sanitizers as well.
• Wash your hands often, particularly after using the restroom.

If you feel sick or are caring for someone who is sick:

• Stay home unless you are seeking medical treatment.
• Limit your participation in community activities. Many of our services, fellowships and events have streaming options on our website and on Facebook Live.
• Plan to call into ministry meetings instead of attending them in person.
• Dispose of used tissues right away. 

In general:

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, mouth and others with unwashed hands.
• Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as often as you can. Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds.
• If you are not near a sink, use hand sanitizer. Sanitize all of the skin on your hands and rub them together until they feel dry. Refrain from shaking your hands to dry them. 
• Engage in respiratory etiquette by coughing and sneezing into the bend of your elbow. 
• Sanitize freshly touched surfaces in your home, school or office daily. 
• Avoid coming in close contact with those who appear unwell. 

Educate yourself:

• Learn the additional measures that high risk, vulnerable individuals should take. 
• Stay up on current events.
