COVID-19 Announcement and Initial Guidelines for Resuming Services

As pastors, elders and staff of CCF Tucson we have been closely monitoring a wide variety of sources of information associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. After much prayer we believe it is the Lord’s leading that we reopen our Prince Road church facility.

We will resume services open to attendance by our church body beginning on May 31st. This is a specially significant date as it is also Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit was poured out and the church began to turn the world around! (See Acts 2). In order to accommodate necessary precautions like social distancing, our service schedule will change. We are adding a new service at 8AM. There will also be following services taking place at 9:30 and 11 AM. Our Wednesday Oasis Service will continue to meet at 6:30 PM. We also want to let you know that there will be no other ministries aside from main services available on Sunday mornings. Our children’s and youth ministries will reopen at a later date to be determined. Children and youth will be encouraged to attend our main services with their families. We would also encourage you to read and prayerfully support the following new policies that will facilitate our reopening.

If you are in a high-risk category, we ask that you continue to attend our online campus. We will continue to monitor and encourage attendance at a later date.
If you have any sickness or fever at all, we ask that you do not come to any live service and instead attend our online service. Please do so until at least 7 days pass after your symptoms go away.
We will not be taking temperatures of people attending. Please make good decisions about whether you should attend or not. We all are responsible for our own heath and need to be considerate of the health and welfare of others.
We are removing chairs from the sanctuary to help facilitate strict social distancing to the extent feasible as outlined in guidelines issued in Governor Ducey’s Executive Order 2020-6. You may have your family sit close to you but please be courteous to create the appropriate spacing between groups of other people. Ushers will help with this process.
We are not requiring masks or gloves to be worn. They are optional for people to make their own decision on whether they want to wear them or not. June 21st Addendum – We are requiring masks if unable to keep “social distancing,” due to the new guidelines from the Pima County, Tucson Mayor & CDC.
We ask that no one shake hands or hug other people other than your own family. This is to walk in love toward one another as each of us may have different thresholds of what contact we believe is acceptable.
Hand sanitizer will be available and we encourage using it upon entering the building.

Please pray with us as we move towards this date to resume live services. Pray for wisdom that we make good timely decisions to reopen all CCF Tucson ministries. Each week we will evaluate what other ministries to open and will post on our web page, social media and announcements from Pastor Scott. We are really looking forward to seeing many of you again as we corporately worship our Lord and Savior.
