Discipleship Resources - July 9, 2020

CHBC,

If the church is God’s plan for discipling believers and evangelizing the lost, then how do we stay ready to that? When we are not regularly meeting in small groups for equipping, how do we stay prepared for the purposes of exalting and extending? Here are resources to assist you in being prepared to give a defense of the hope that is in you (1 Pet. 3:15-16).

Sunday Re-Gathering
Current worship service times for AM Worship are 10 AM for English-speaking worship, and 12 PM for Spanish-speaking worship
CHBC is still honoring physical distancing recommendations
This means we are only being seated on every other row of the Worship Center (rows should be clearly marked)
We are allowing a three-chair gap between family units (a family unit is made up those who live in the same home)
We remind those who are 65 years of age and older, or who are in a higher-risk category to know that our health agencies are still discouraging being in crowded public spaces
Wearing a mask is not required, but is encouraged in crowds where physical distancing is not possible. If you feel you need it for your safety and the safety of others please feel comfortable worshipping with us while wearing a mask
We are sanitizing prior to each gathering
Please be aware that some have reason to be more cautious than others, therefore respect people’s space and convictions
We are using RSVP so that we can have enough seating in the Worship Center and in our overflow rooms, as well as to prepare properly for the number of children who will be in ETC (Extended Teaching Care for 3 years of age and younger)
Please use this link to RSVP: CHBC Re-Gathering for July 12, 2020
If you forget to RSVP you are still welcome to attend, or to bring a guest, just be aware that those who arrive late may need to be seated in overflow.
