PRIVATE PRAYER: WHAT TO EXPECT:
WEDESDAY AND SUNDAY 10.00AM-11.00AM
PRIVATE PRAYER: WHAT TO EXPECT:
- wear a mask if you have one (you will be offered one otherwise).
- maintain 2 metres distance at all times, including outside.
- enter the foyer one at a time and follow directions of steward who will sanitise your hands.
- complete an attendance slip. They are on a table just inside the internal doors. Complete once seated, not at the table. Pens will be provided but must be taken home, not left (a free gift!). The slips are for “track and trace” purposes. The slips will be removed each day and shredded after 21 days.
- a steward will take you to your pew: please sit where you are allocated and do not move around. This is necessary for cleaning and social distancing purposes.
- exit via the fire door, not the main entrance, remembering to place your attendance slip in the box provided. Sanitise your hands.
- do not congregate outside the fire door.
- if you forget something, do not use the fire exit to re-enter. Use the main entrance.
