CFTROU 0117: Leading Through COVID-19: Regathering FC

We recently regathered with our church family this past Sunday. This was our first in-person gathering since March 2020. 10 out of our 12 campuses reopened and on this episode we have representation from several of our neighborhood churches. We talk about how it felt to be back in church wearing masks, how to handle difficult situations, and the how we communicated our guidelines set forth by the CDC and local authorities.
Key Points:
  • What it was like to reopen and be in-person for the first time in five months.
  • We talk about our attendance and what it felt like to be in the room.
  • Challenges we observed and our plans to address them.
  • The importance of understanding how our people feel.
  • Worship in our Chapel Services format.
  • How helped our families with kids attend our services.
  • The importance of following guidelines put out by authorities and that this is about putting others ahead of ourselves.

Our intention is to minimize the potential exposure from COVID-19. Click To TweetI would just encourage church leadership to keep in mind that this is a moment to think about other people – putting others before ourselves. Click To Tweet
