  1. Make the Board aware if you have been inside the church within a 14-day window of the infection period
  2. Contact all individuals potentially in contact with a positive case
     1. Ensure positive tests are reported to the Health Department by the testing agency
     2. Additionally, the parishioner will be required to tell the Health Department all places and individuals in which they’ve interacted during the potential infection period.

• If an infected parishioner is in the church within the 5-day window of infection, pews and high contact areas (including areas the infected parishioner frequented) will be deep cleaned by a professional cleaning company.
• Church Communication – In the event of a positive case within the parish:
  1. The church website will be utilized for communicating all information regarding COVID-19 and impacts to the church
  2. In the event of a positive case:
     1. The website will communicate the number of parishioners that have tested positive and the date in which they last were present in the parish
     2. We will not communicate/list the names of parishioners

• Our sanitation protocol will be reinforced
