You can register by phone (306-522-9571) or email (firstpresregina@sasktel.net). Leave a message for Shirley and indicate that you plan to attend worship in-person this Sunday. If you are registering for a family, please indicate who will be attending.

If your plans change, don't worry. We'll forgive you if you can't make it after all, and we'll still let you in if you didn't register. However, registration will help us to prepare well for the number of people expected, and it will make the check-in process go more smoothly.

Here are some other things you should know about coming to worship in-person at the church:

• We are opening carefully, having studied and implemented the guidelines for places of worship that are set by the provincial health authority. This includes additional cleaning and sanitizing, physical distancing, use of masks, screening, and adapting activities to reduce risks. We recognize that it will feel different from our normal worship, but it will be good to see one another and to worship together in person in our sanctuary.
  
• Please stay home if you are sick, if you have been travelling outside the country in the last 14 days, or if you have been in contact with someone who may have COVID-19.
  
• If you are medically vulnerable, please consider delaying your return to church until there is a vaccine. Please continue to watch online. We care about your health and safety, so do not feel pressure to return until it is safe and comfortable for you.
  
• Register to attend by phoning Shirley in the church office (306-522-9571) or emailing (firstpresregina@sasktel.net) by Friday morning each week. This will help us to plan for Sunday morning, but you will still be welcomed at worship even if you did not register in advance.
  
• Bulletins that include the order of worship and announcements will be sent out by email on Fridays. Print a copy and bring it with you if you would like to. Everything will also be projected on the wall at the front of the church, so a bulletin is not essential.
  
• Arrive 15 minutes earlier than you normally would in order to facilitate the seating process.
  
• Please wear a non-medical mask. Everyone will be wearing masks while inside the building. Amanda will take her mask off to lead in prayer and to preach from the pulpit, but we will all wear masks for singing. (We will have disposal masks available at the registration desk for anyone who does not have one.)
  
• Enter using the Albert Street door only, where you will be welcomed, registered, and asked the health and travel questions. There may be a line-up to enter, so maintain physical distance while you wait for your turn.
  
• If you want to bring your offering envelope to worship, you can leave it in the plate at the registration table. The offerings will be presented during worship as we sing the doxology. Of course, you can continue to use PAR, e-transfers, or mail in your offering if you prefer.
  
• After checking in, you’ll use the hand sanitizer provided, and then proceed up the stairs (or the lift) to the narthex. An usher will guide you to a seat. We will be using every third pew and sitting in household groups with at least 2 metres distancing between households. Once you are seated, please stay in your pew for the duration of the service.
  
• Children are welcome. There will be a children’s message (delivered from a distance) so that children will stay with their families. Sunday School will be resuming soon, but most likely in an online format.
  
• Washrooms will be available for urgent need only.
  
• Sharing food continues to be a very high-risk activity, so we will not have a coffee hour after the service.
  
• Following worship, please follow the direction of the ushers to exit by the 14th Avenue door while keeping physical distancing. Please use the available hand sanitizer again before you leave the church. Only those needing to use the lift will be exiting by the Albert Street door.
