Attending On Site: COVID-19 Response

---

ONSITE ATTENDANCE PROTOCOL

Due to the CDC changing its guidance related to COVID-19, Governor Lamont has changed the executive orders for Connecticut, effective last month (May 19). 

• Masks are no longer required indoors or outdoors for those who have been fully vaccinated
• Masks will still be required indoors for those who have not been fully vaccinated
• Governor Lamont said, “we will allow individuals to monitor themselves”/self-report

What this means for us at Calvary:

• For all major services, children’s ministries, youth meetings, and groups starting in June

1. We will no longer request social distancing
2. We will continue to have sanitizing stations
3. We will no longer require masks
4. We will encourage people to follow the Governor’s mandate for non-vaccinated individuals, but we will not police in any way
5. We will encourage those who prefer to wear masks to feel comfortable in wearing them throughout services and meetings, and will continue to provide them
6. Pastor will carry a mask on his person so he can minister to any individual who may feel uncomfortable with no masks

• We will preach and teach love and respect for each other, especially in the presence of differing opinions
• We will strive not to make moral imperatives out of issues which the Bible does not present as moral imperatives
• We will strive to show honor to each other, whether an individual continues to choose to wear a mask or chooses to stop wearing one
• For those seeking to move a little bit slower, we encourage them to continue to connect with us online

We continue to monitor both government and Assembly of God guidance.
