In-Person Service Protocol for Relevant Kids Environments

Check-in

  • Check-in volunteers will check temps of other volunteers, kids, and parents as they enter the kids space. Individuals with temps higher than 100.4 will be asked to watch the service online that week.

  • Check-in volunteers will hold iPads in order to check in regular attenders. Only the check-in volunteers will touch the iPads and printers. After services, check-in volunteers will clean iPads and printers with the cleaner provided by Relevant, so that they are sanitized for the next volunteer to use.

  • VIP check-in will be run as touchless as possible. Volunteers will either enter new family information into the computer or will fill out a physical VIP card as they verbally take the info from the parent.

Babies/Toddlers Jr./Toddlers

  • All temps of kids will be checked upon entering the building.

  • No personal bags will be brought into the room. A shelf outside the room will be available for diaper bags.

  • Parents will be asked for permission to use Relevant diapers during service and permission will be recorded in writing. If permission is not granted, parents will be asked to place their diapers and wipes into Ziploc bags and write on them their child’s name. 

  • If a child needs a bottle or cup during service, that will also be placed in a Ziploc bag labeled with the child’s name.

  • No snacks will be distributed in the rooms.

  • Rooms will be sanitized between services.

What if I am considered “high-risk”?

If you or someone in your family is considered “high-risk” for severe illness, we encourage you to continue worshipping online until you are ready to return to church in person.

What if I do not feel comfortable coming in person yet?

We completely understand, and we want you to feel comfortable. We invite you to worship with the Relevant family online on Facebook and YouTube, on Sundays at 9:30 and 11:00am, and 8:00pm. When you’re ready to return to church in person, you’ll receive a warm welcome back.

If any of the following applies to you, please worship with the Relevant family online:

  • In the last 14 days you have tested positive for, been experiencing symptoms of, or have a known exposure to COVID-19.

  • If you are in a “high-risk” group, or you care for someone who may be at “high-risk” for severe illness.
