Reopening of Church for Worship
Under the govt roadmap our church will reopen for public worship on Sunday, 5th July 2020 with service at 11am. In opening our church we have taken the best available public health safety advice in line with HSE guidelines.
We are mindful of our responsibility to our congregation, their loved ones, friends and the wider community. In response to the threat still posed by Covid-19, we have drawn up a " Return to Worship" protocol document, which is now available to download from the News page of this site. As such worship will be a different experience for some time to come and continuing co-operation is vital.
The main points are as follows :
** Within the church building/grounds a social distancing policy of 2 M will apply
** Face masks are expected to be worn
** A One Way system for entering/exiting the building will be in operation. On entering/leaving, provided hand sanitizer is to be applied to hands
** Our usual tea/coffee/refreshments will not be served
** The singing of hymns/songs will not be a feature of worship
** Details of those attending will be taken for the purposes of Tracing. These will be stored/kept as per GDPR regulations.
As a faith community, we are aware of our responsibilities to the people of Cork and beyond. For the immediate future, admittance to the building will be appointment only, please see contact details below.
On Line Broadcasts :
During the pandemic, the church began broadcasting regular services from the home of our minister. On return to worship in the church, our Sunday morningservice will be broadcast from the church live on our Facebook page. Over the comming weeks, we plan to make this a much more interactive experience for those joining us via smartphone/laptop/tablet. Our minister will aslo continue to broadcast a short reflective service of Night Prayer. This will revert to one night a week, Wed @ 10pm.
Finally, can we ask you to join with us in praying for and being mindful of those whose lives and loved ones are affected by Covid-19. Thank you.
