Our Reopening Plan at FBC Harbor Oaks

To our community:

We love our community! We are committed to being a fruitful part of Port Orange and our local Harbor Oaks neighborhood. We are currently in phase 3 for in-person worship services, where ministry activities on campus return to "normal." We will also keep broadcasting our services on Facebook Live each Sunday at around 11:00 AM.  Everything we do is then uploaded to our Youtube channel, First Baptist Church of Harbor Oaks,  as well as our Rumble channel.

You may be wondering what our church is doing to plan for this. We're glad you asked! Below is our plan going forward, including both short-range and longer-range goals.

1. We continue to regularly sanitize and clean our common areas and "high touch" areas of our buildings. We have put a plan into place to ensure that everything that may be touched during worship time will be sanitized.

2. We have added hand sanitizer stations at each access door to our buildings. We have asked our members, and we ask all guests, to make use of this important sanitization tool. We also provide disposable masks at the door for those who want or need one.

3. Other public gatherings during the week continue to meet, though with modified conditions to keep attendees safe. Please call the church for current information on what is happening and when.

4. Our nursery center will be temporarily closed while we transition to public gatherings. We have reviewed this ministry and find that the best way to keep the little ones safe is to keep our nursery center closed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to families. We will provide children activity packs to all children in attendance, for them to keep and take home.

We love our community, and our every intention is to continue loving on our community in the best and safest way we can, because that's what Christ calls us to do. It is what He would do. God's people are called by Scripture to gather together regularly, and we will do that the best way possible. Our God is in control! As virus concerns continue to abate, we will revisit our current strategies and modify them accordingly.  For more information, please call the church at 386-767-6062.
