Prayer Open House
Posted on
We’d like to invite you to share in the joy of our new building by participating in a Prayer Open House this week. Please arrive during the timeslot that works best for you, be sure to wear your mask, and do your best to practice social distancing while at the church. Come wander around and as you do we’ll give you a few suggested prayer points for particular areas of the building. We will have lights turned on and doors propped open for you, but as much as you are able we’d ask that you do your best to refrain from touching surfaces throughout the building. The restrooms on the first floor will be open should you need them, but please do not use the others to limit the cleaning that will need to be done after each Open House. We will provide hand sanitizer throughout the building, but again we’d ask for your help to minimize contact with surfaces to keep the building safe for staff who are there daily.
>> Monday, June 22 from Noon-1P, 6-7P
>> Wednesday, June 24 from Noon-1P, 6-7P
