Covid-19 Safety
Our Commitment
As we continue to safely gather for in-person services, we are proud of the experience that we’ve put together for you. While you’ll notice some changes designed to keep you safe, the Grace City experience remains the same. Our Welcome Team will be ready to greet you with a wave and will be wearing masks as you enter, and Grace City Kids ministry is available with increased sanitization protocols and PPE for our team members.
Below you’ll find detailed information on what you can expect during in-person services on Sundays at 9:30am, 11:15am, and 6pm.
We’ve also included the latest information on our online experience, as well as ways to stay connected in giving and groups as we move forward.
What to Expect
How You Can Help
Stay home if you’re feeling sick. Church Online remains available Sundays at 9:30am, 11:15am, and 6pm at gracecity.com, as well as on our YouTube channel and Facebook page.
Sanitization
Hand sanitizer will be made available at every main entrance + Grace City Kids entrance, as well as in each Grace City Kids classroom.
We will use FDA-approved sanitization methods between services (bathrooms, kids classrooms, and high-touch surfaces).
Face Masks
Face masks are recommended for everyone over the age of eight years old who is attending or serving at all times as we comply with all local and state ordinances, as well as the latest CDC guidelines. You may bring your own face mask, or we have complimentary disposable face masks available.
Social Distancing
In lieu of self-serve, Grace City team members wearing a mask and disposable gloves will be available to serve both coffee and water.
We will not be bridging the aisles at the end of services.
We will be waving hello instead of shaking hands when greeting you as well as during meet and greet.
We will have a bucket that you can drop your Prayer, Praise, and Decided cards as well as offering envelopes into when you exit.
Grace City Kids
Additional Grace City Kids classrooms are available to allow for even smaller classroom sizes.
All teachers will wear masks.
Parents will be able to choose whether their child will be given hand-sanitizer or wash their hands upon entrance into the classroom.
All toys and classroom supplies will be sanitized before and after services.
Any child with a fever, cough, or shortness of breath will not be allowed into classrooms.

Giving
We are so grateful for the continued generosity of our church during this time that makes it possible for us to continue to offer services online, meet the needs of those in our church community who need assistance, and work with our local partners to meet the needs of the larger Lakeland community. We offer a variety of contactless ways to give, both for those who choose to join us for in-person services and those who continue to feel more comfortable gathering online.
