Effective immediately, masking is optional for all church activities.

The following policy is based on the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) latest COVID-19 guideline.

1. Masking is optional.
2. Everyone is advised to evaluate their individual risk and take appropriate precautions.
3. We do not require proof of vaccination, but we encourage every eligible person to get vaccinated.
4. If you choose to wear a mask, we highly recommend KN95, KFN95 or equivalent.
5. If you are ill, or have recently been ill with symptoms of Covid-19, or if you have been in contact with someone who has, or may have Covid-19, please attend church virtually instead of coming in person.

We strive to keep our most vulnerable safe by adding these additional safety measures.

1. Two HEPA air purifiers will be running in the sanctuary. As a structural benefit, our sanctuary has a high ceiling that allows for good air circulation.
2. High quality N95 masks, hand sanitizers, antiseptic wipes and social distance cards will be available at the Welcome Table for those who wish to use them.
3. Microphones will be positioned at least ten feet from the nearest seats in the sanctuary.
4. HEPA air purifiers will be running in any occupied gathering room (social room, upstairs meeting room) to improve air quality.

NOTE: Anyone who tests positive for COVID-19 within one week after attending an in-person UUCAS event MUST notify the President of the Board (president@uucas.org). We will notify congregants who may have been exposed. The UUCAS Board of Trustees will actively monitor and update this policy as required.
