Health & Safety Practices
Here is what we are doing at Grace to help prevent the spread of illness during AWANA.
-
During AWANA, everyone will be encouraged to frequently sanitize or wash their hands.
-
Adults and children are welcome to wear masks, if they choose.
-
We request that volunteers and families who are experiencing symptoms of illness (see below for an example) stay home until symptoms subside (i.e. fever free for at least 24 hours without fever reducing medication.)
We have plans in place should our face-to-face meetings be restricted to online/remote only.
I further acknowledge that Grace Evangelical Free Church (Grace EFC) has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of illness.
I further acknowledge that Grace EFC cannot guarantee that my child will not become ill due to their participation in weekly AWANA gatherings. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to and/or infected by the Coronavirus/COVID-19 or other illness may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, church volunteers and staff, and other children attending AWANA and their families.
I voluntarily send my child to attend AWANA at Grace EFC and acknowledge that we must comply with all set procedures to reduce the spread of illness while attending AWANA.
I attest that:
-
If my child or anyone in our household is experiencing any symptoms of illness such as: cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fever, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, or new loss of taste or smell, we will keep them home from the weekly AWANA meeting.
-
We will notify the AWANA leadership team if our child(ren) will not be attending.
