Please find below the covenant agreed to by all who attend.

Reservations Required

We ask that you make a new reservation each week by Thursday at noon using the form below this covenant.  In the event the church office is informed that a participant in the Courtyard service you attended is diagnosed with Covid-19, we will contact you with the contact information you provide. 
​

Bring Your Own Chair

Please bring your own chair to worship.  This keeps others from being exposed during set up and take down.  If you need assistance with a chair, please note this when making your reservation.

No Congregational Singing

Please refrain from singing.  Singing produces tiny droplets, called aerosols, which are less than 10 microns and easily slip through consumer face masks.  For everyone's safety, we ask that you refrain from singing while on the property of Ocala West UMC.
​
​

Masks Required

Please wear a mask from the time you leave your vehicle until you return to your vehicle.  Masks protect us from the droplets that naturally occur when someone is speaking.  Typically, when droplets are released, they usually fall to the ground within 6 feet due to gravity.

Social Distancing

Please remain 6 feet away from those who are not in your reservation “party.”  Please do not congregate on church property before or after service.  Please do not approach or touch other people or their belongings.

​

Hand Sanitizer

Please use hand sanitizer.  Hand sanitizer stations are available for your use prior to entering the Courtyard. Some transmission of the virus which causes Covid-19 is through touch, so washing hands and using hand sanitizer is important for everyone's safety.
