COVID-19 Measures“Moving Forward Cautiously” - September 16th , 2021
Under the latest Government of Alberta mandatory restrictions announced on September 15th, 2021, Places of Worship have now been included in these restrictions:
The new mandatory restrictions for Places of Worship effective, September 16th, 2021, are:
Capacity limited to 1/3 fire code occupancy.
Masks are mandatory.
2 metres physical distancing between households, or 2 close contacts for those living alone.
Wedding and Funeral mandatory restriction - Effective Sept. 20th, 2021:
Indoor wedding ceremonies and funeral services are permitted with up to 50 people or 50% of fire code occupancy, whichever is less.
Indoor wedding and funeral receptions are prohibited unless the hosting facility implements the restrictions exemption program.
Outdoor ceremonies, services and receptions are permitted with up to 200 people and must follow liquor sales and consumption restrictions (sales end at 10pm, consumption by 11pm), unless the hosting facility implements the restrictions exemption program.
As we move forward together, we will be implementing these restrictions. Currently McDougall is not part of the “restriction exemption program”. We will continue to monitor and update the congregation as new developments unfold. Please remember that the best defense against COVID19 is to be totally vaccinated.
Thank you for your ongoing support and cooperation,
