Welcome to River Oaks Church's ongoing response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a community-driven organization dedicated to the spiritual well-being of our members and the wider community, we are committed to taking proactive measures to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone involved.
Our Commitment to Safety
At River Oaks Church, the safety and health of our members, visitors, and staff are of utmost importance to us. As such, we have implemented comprehensive safety protocols and guidelines in line with local, state, and national health recommendations.
Enhanced Sanitization Procedures
We have increased our sanitization efforts across all our facilities. Our dedicated team regularly disinfects high-touch surfaces such as doorknobs, handrails, and seating areas. Additionally, hand sanitizers are available throughout the premises to promote good hygiene practices.
Physical Distancing Measures
We have implemented physical distancing measures to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all. Our seating arrangements have been modified to maintain a safe distance between individuals or family groups. Signage and floor markers are in place to remind everyone of the importance of maintaining adequate physical distance.
Mask Requirements
To further ensure the safety of our community, we require all members, visitors, and staff to wear masks or face coverings while inside our facilities. This measure helps reduce the risk of transmission and protects everyone in attendance.
Virtual Services and Resources
We understand that not everyone can physically attend our services or events due to various reasons. That's why we offer a range of virtual services and resources to ensure that our community can still stay connected and engaged during these challenging times.
Live Streaming Services
Our regular worship services are streamed live online, allowing individuals and families to participate from the safety and comfort of their homes. Our dedicated team ensures a high-quality streaming experience, complete with live chat features for interactive engagement.
