Eastside Kids Regathering Information
After much prayer and consideration, the leadership of Eastside Community Church is excited to announce that we will be introducing a modified version of our in-person Sunday Eastside Kids programming. In order to keep everyone safe and to follow recommended guidelines, weekly registration will be required and additional Covid protocols will be followed.
Protocols:
Masks will be required for all volunteers and staff members.
Masks for kids are recommended, but not required.
All kids, volunteers, and staff members will complete a pre-screening questionnaire and have their temperatures taken.
Weekly pre-registration will be required to maintain safe room capacities. Registration opens each Thursday the week before (1o days before).
Each room will be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.
Programming will be adjusted to allow for social distancing.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What ages is Kids Ministry being offered for?
Both our preschool (0 - 5) and elementary (k - 5th) ministries are open!
What if I don’t feel comfortable sending my kids yet?
No worries! We will continue to offer our Eastside Kids weekly teaching videos and resources online. Additionally, kids are always welcome to join you in service. Our services are family friendly and we'll continue to provide coloring sheets and family tables each week.
Will I be notified in the event of illness?
Families and volunteers will be notified if there is a report of a positive case of COVID in their class.
What additional social distancing protocols will be followed?
In order to allow for social distancing, room capacities will be lowered and kids will remain in their rooms the entire time. This means kids will not gather with other rooms for a “large group” lesson.
Will snacks still be provided?
We will provide individually packaged bags of Goldfish for kids. Kids will be seated socially distanced during snack time. Kids will also be given hand sanitizer before snacks are distributed.
What if I have other questions?
