Returning to In-Person Worship
Your health and safety is our utmost importance. Here is what to know before you go.
As you prepare to attend in-person worship, please know that the leadership of Citrus has made updates based on guidance from health authorities, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), requirements from Orange County Public Schools for all groups that use space, the Florida Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, and appropriate governmental agencies.
Pre-Registration for Citrus Church’s in-person worship service at Summerlake Elementary School is available below, and will open each Wednesday at 9am.
Citrus Church will continue to offer live worship online at 10:30am each Sunday.
Top Things You Should Know
We are allowed a maximum of fifty (50) persons. Your pre-registration ensures your spot. When you register we will ask for your address, phone, and email address. This additional information is required to be collected should OCPS need to do contact tracing.
Please arrive early to help ease the stress of everyone arriving at the same time. We will hold seats for 5 minutes after the service starts. Then, will open to any wait-list or stand-by attendees.
Face masks are required for all (ages 2 and up) and must be worn correctly (covering the nose and mouth) at all times. We will have disposable masks on hand in adult and child sizes.
Temperature screenings using contactless digital thermometers are required for entry. Per the standards of Orange County Public Schools, anyone with a temperature of 100.4 or greater is asked to stay home. Anyone experiencing or exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 please stay home. You are invited to join in our online live-stream.
Due to the abundance of research on singing as a “super-spreading behavior” we will be asking you to not sing in worship. We invite you to worship through music by paying close attention to the words of the songs in a worshipful way, and you may whisper or hum under your mask, but we ask that you please do not sing.
At this time we are inviting families with children to worship together. We will provide age-appropriate activities for children to engage with during worship. We encourage you to bring a picnic blanket to allow your children additional space.
We invite you to bring a folding chair for each person in your party. Don’t worry, we will also have sanitized folding chairs on hand too.
