At the direction of the Deacon Administrative Council, our church
has adopted the following plan for Re-Opening Tabernacle.
PHASE 3 PLAN (Current Phase) – Moderate Physical Distancing
- In-person shortened family worship service continues
- At-risk individuals are encouraged to stay home
- Service is live streamed on the church website and Facebook page
- Limited ETC resumes in steps beginning with youngest children with workers following defined procedures
- Physical distancing protocols practiced in worship
- Care groups continue (No on-campus Sunday School)
- Weekly online content and activities continue for all ages
- Life Center re-opens with physical distancing
- Small indoor and outdoor events may be approved on a case by case basis with physical distancing
- Enhanced cleaning procedures continue (specific details will be communicated)
- Staff works in office with physical distancing protocols
We have a detailed plan for future phases, but we will continue to be
flexible and evaluate all decisions based on recommendations
from public health officials as any developments occur.

Worship Service Live Stream Active!
We are now live streaming our worship service on our webpage each Sunday morning at 11 AM. While watching live at home is a new and different experience beyond our worship center, our hope is that it will allow you to connect to Tabernacle in new ways.
To join the live stream, go to
www.tabernacle.org
and click the button that says "Click Here for Live-Stream." Once you are on the live-stream page, click the play icon. Our live stream is also now available on our church Facebook page.

VBS Update
Ministry plans continue to be fluid and flexible during the pandemic. As a community, we must re-evaluate circumstances and make the necessary changes in those plans. Due to a lack of engagement, Vacation Bible School has been canceled for this year. We will continue to work to offer other opportunities for our children to worship together. Please follow the TAB Kids Facebook page for more information.

Lord's Supper
We will observe The Lord's Supper during the worship service on Sunday morning, August 9. The elements will be in a single-use, prepackaged container and will be distributed to each family as they enter the worship center. We will not pass the plates, but we look forward to celebrating Christ's sacrifice for us as we temporarily change the way we observe this important ordinance. If you are watching from home, you can either use your own bread and juice or you can come by the help desk at the church to pick up the elements.

Prayer Line Now Open
Tabernacle has a new dedicated prayer line! Someone is available to pray live during our worship service for any who call 7
70.832.1532. Also, the voicemail will be checked regularly throughout the week to follow up with those who want a prayer team member to contact them. Please help us spread the word about this new and important way we can reach out to those outside our church building during this time when many cannot come in-person.

Facility Name Updates
As we enjoy our newly remodeled facility, there are a few places with new names that have been changed to more clearly communicate to those who are new to our church. Please take some time to learn about these new names so you can help point people in the right direction!
- The "Office" entrance is back open in the circle drive. If you are coming to the church during the week, please use this door if possible.
- "Parlor" is now "Heritage Room"
- "TLC" is now "Life Center"
- "Welcome Center" is the name for our new large greeting space outside the Worship Center
- "Kid's Corner" is the name for a new area where kids can play while parents enjoy some conversation in our Welcome Center
- "Help Desk" is the primary place for information both on Sundays and throughout the week as you visit the office
- The "Welcome" entrance is the name for the former blue awning entrance. This door is where most people will likely enter the facility from the large parking lot and will be called the "main entrance" on some of the signage.
- The "Children" entrance by the playground is the place where all families with children age 0-3 should enter for ETC check-in. Eventually, this will be where all families with children age 0-5th grade will check in for Sunday School. This was formerly called the "Preschool" entrance.
Currently, there is no exterior signage around the building. This will be added and completed by August 14.
