COVID Policy & Updates

COVID-19 History at LCUUC

COVID Safety Precautions -  Mid-June 2022

We are now in the "medium risk" state according to the CDC. 
 
Our new official position, based on the available information we have is that we are now strongly recommending masks when inside the church for any group activities. It is not a requirement, and we hope that it will not come to us needing to require them again, but we need to start operating with a higher level of caution and be prepared that if conditions in our area continue to worsen we may need to take additional measures.

COVID Safety Precautions - April 2022

The LCUUC Board has not made any changes to the Covid Safety Precautions since March 2022.  
 
Continued expectations for all people entering the building when others are also present include the following:

• Stay home if you aren't feeling well or if you know you have been exposed to Covid-19 recently.
• We recommend that all eligible people get vaccination and booster shot[s] (unless medically contraindicated).
• Wearing a mask in the building is a personal choice. If you are more comfortable wearing a mask at church, please feel free to do so. Masks are also optional while singing.
• Be respectful of others’ risk tolerance. Please get consent before hugging and maintain physical distance unless all involved are comfortable being closer.
• Turn on (and UP) the HEPA filtration units as high as is tolerable in the rooms that are being used.
• We recommend downloading the “WI exposure notification app” for the purpose of contact tracing should the need arise.
• All LCUUC staff and volunteers who have contact with numerous people are fully vaccinated/boosted. This includes worship leaders, musicians, religious education teachers and assistants, ushers, and greeters.
• If you test positive for Covid after having been in the building, please inform the office as soon as possible.

LCUUC continues to be guided by the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
